1. Disordered matter: From Ionic Glasses to Proteins
Abstract : Understanding the glassy state is regarded as one of the ten most important questions in physics in the 21st century [1]. This thesis deals with structure and dynamics of a few model disordered systems ranging from an ionic glass to proteins. The structure of an ionic liquid, Ca0.4K0. READ MORE

2. Computer simulations of condensed phases with icosahedral local order
Abstract : Understanding the fundamental aspects, and the formation mechanisms of glasses remains an outstanding unsolved problem of condensed-matter physics.Glass-formation in simple atomic systems is generally associated with the icosahedral local order. READ MORE

3. Computer Simulations of Simple Liquids with Tetrahedral Local Order : the Supercooled Liquid, Solids and Phase Transitions
Abstract : The understanding of complex condensed matter systems is an area of intense study. In this thesis, some properties of simple liquids with strong preference for tetrahedral local ordering are explored. These liquids are amenable to supercooling, and give complex crystalline structures on eventual crystallisation. READ MORE

5. Thermodynamics and Structure of Plate-Like Particle Dispersions
Abstract : A considerable amount of mineral particles are found to have a plate-like shape. The work in this thesis concerns theoretical investigations, using Monte Carlo method, of the properties of such particles in aqueous solutions. READ MORE
