  1. 1. Computational studies of water vapour - Liquid equilibrium

    Author : Erik Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Monte Carlo simulation; cluster; water; Gibbs ensemble;

    Abstract : It is commonly known that water plays a crucial role in many natural and industrial processes. One of these processes is the formation of water trees, and the subsequent breakdown of polyethylene used for high voltage cable insulation purposes. READ MORE

    Abstract : It is commonly known that water plays a crucial role in many natural and industrial processes. One of these processes is the formation of water trees, and the subsequent breakdown of polyethylene used for high voltage cable insulation purposes. READ MORE

  3. 3. Free Energy and Surface Forces in polymer systems: Monte Carlo Simulation Studies

    Author : Andrei Broukhno; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; polyelectrolytes; electrostatic interactions; phase transitions; colloidal stability; surface forces; Monte Carlo simulation; free energy evaluation; polyampholytes; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : The thesis is focused on two major subjects: - Calculation of free energy is of great help in the study of any molecular system. The free energy determines phase behaviour of colloids and polymer solutions. It also controls the conformational properties of single macromolecules, e.g. READ MORE

  4. 4. Correlations in low-dimensional quantum many-particle systems

    Author : Erik Eriksson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns correlation effects in quantum many-particle systems in one and two dimensions. Such systems show many exotic non-Fermi liquid phenomena, which can be treated analytically using non-perturbative field-theory methods. READ MORE

  5. 5. Structure, phase behavior, and dynamics of colloidal systems characterized by strong, short- and moderate-ranged attractions: a computational study

    Author : Bodil Ahlström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Attractions between colloidal particles are often so strong that non-equilibrium behavior results. However, dissolved non-adsorbing polymer can be added to give a weak attraction between particles so that equilibrium phase transitions appear at moderate polymer concentrations. READ MORE
