Curriculum

Post Doctoral research project:
(i) Coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to study how copolymers with different types of liquid crystal moieties can be designed to exhibit complex deformation behavior.

Doctoral research projects:
(i) Rheology predictions of entangled polymer melts from first principles, using atomistic simulations and a slip- link model theoretical framework.
(ii) Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to study water transport and interfacial heat transfer in composite graphene nanochannels with a polymer matrix support.

Startup of Steady Shear Flow

We study the possibility of nonuniversality in the nonlinear rheology of polymer melts that previous works have recently questioned.

Interfacial Thermal Transport

Here, we study the role of the underlying substrate on interfacial heat transport in supported graphene nanochannels with water.

Eleectroosmotic Transport

Molecular dynamics simulations are conduced to study phenomena related to the presence of charge inversion in electrolytes confined in nanopores
