Liquid drops on a surface: using density functional theory to calculate the binding potential and drop profiles and comparing with results from mesoscopic modelling.
The contribution to the free energy for a film of liquid of thickness h on a solid surface due to the interactions between the solid-liquid and liquid-gas interfaces is given by the binding potential, g(h). The precise form of g(h) determines whether or not the liquid wets the surface. Note that differentiating g(h) gives the Derjaguin or disjoining pressure. We develop a microscopic density fu...
متن کاملA First-Principles Study on Interaction between Carbon Nanotubes (10,10) and Gallates Derivatives as Vehicles for Drug Delivery
First principles calculations were carried out for investigation the novel 7-hydroxycoumarinyl gallates derivatives in gas and liquid phases using density functional theory (DFT) method. Computational chemistry simulations were carried out to compare calculated quantum chemical parameters for gallates derivatives. All calculations were performed using DMol3 code which is based on DFT. The Doubl...

The weighted density functional theory proposed by Tarazona is applied to study the solid-liquid interface. In the last two decades the weighted density functional became a useful tool to consider the properties of inhomogeneous liquids. In this theory, the role of the size of molecules or the particles of which the matter is composed, was found to be important. In this resarch we study a har...
متن کاملSurface Tension Prediction of n-Alkanes by a Modified Peng-Robinson Equation of State Using the Density Functional Theory
Through this study, the ability of a modified Peng-Robinson (MPR) equation of state in predicting the surface tension of n-alkanes based on the density functional theory approach was investigated and compared with other studies. The interfacial layer thickness and the density profile were calculated simultaneously at different temperatures from triple point to near critical point using the modi...
متن کاملEffect of Curvature on the Mechanical Properties of Graphene: A Density Functional Tight-binding Approach
Due to the high cost of experimental analyses, researchers used atomistic modeling methods for predicting the mechanical behavior of the materials in the fields of nanotechnology. In the pre-sent study the Self-Consistent Charge Density Functional Tight-Binding (SCC-DFTB) was used to calculate Young's moduli and average potential energy of the straight and curved graphenes with different curvat...
