Computational studies of methane adsorption in nanoporous carbon
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)In this thesis we have completed computational studies using Grand Canonical Monte Carlo on the adsorption of methane into a graphitic nanoporous adsorbent with slit-shaped pores. Simulations were done at a temperature of ... -
Developing molecular docking methods to model protein interactions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] In many cellular processes, proteins carry out their functions through interacting with other molecules, such as small compounds (i.e. ligands), peptides ... -
The reversibility of the adsorption of methane-methyl mercaptan mixtures in nanoporous carbon
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)Methane is the main constituent of natural gas (NG). As fuel for vehicular applications NG requires sorbents that allow efficient, reversible and safe storage at room temperature and moderate pressure. To enable easy human ... -
Theoretical and computational modeling of the dynamics of multicellular and lipid membrane systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)This dissertation presents two research projects that apply theoretical and computational modeling to (1) describe and predict the formation and shape evolution of three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted tissue constructs, and ...
