Research Groups Multi-Scale Modeling Laboratory – SMaLL (www.polito.it/small)

Thesis type MULTI-SCALE MODELLING

Description A better physical understanding of mass and heat transfer at the nanoscale is essential for the rational design of novel nanoconstructs for biomedical as well as for energy applications. Both nanoscale transfer phenomena are strongly influenced by solid-liquid nonbonded interactions occurring at the interface. Molecular Dynamics simulations are used for unveiling the peculiar physics of transfer phenomena at the nanoscale.
