Molecualr Simulation of the liquid inside nano-order channels 

ナノ空間における液滴挙動の解析

Studying droplet dynamics in microfluidic channels can have important applications in various fields, such as lab-on-a-chip devices for medical diagnostics, chemical synthesis, and environmental monitoring. The unique properties of droplets, such as their small size and high surface-to-volume ratio, make them useful in these applications for performing tasks such as mixing, reaction, and separation. 

nmオーダーの流路を運動する液滴の運動は非常に複雑な現象であり、未解明な問題が多い分野である。一方、近年の加工技術の進歩により工学的にも重要になってきている。本研究室では数値計算を用いて微少液滴の運動を解析している。

Molecualr Simulation of the property of the interface between solid-liquid and solid-polymer 

固体-液体・固体-高分子間の界面特製の把握

Molecular simulations are a powerful tool for understanding the properties of interfaces between solid-polymer. Polymer-solid system is very importnat issues in industry. Simulating the interface between solid-polymer can help to understand the behavior of polymers on the solid wall.  

固体壁面上におけるポリマー高分子やペプチドの挙動は工学的に非常に重要なトピックである。本研究室ではペプチドの吸着挙動が固体壁面の界面ダイポールの大きさに依存すること等を明らかにした。
