"The phenomenon of phase inversion occurs in liquid-liquid dispersions found in a variety of chemical engineering fields. From simple oil-water mixtures to complex polymeric systems, the operating variables that affect...

The purpose of this work is to explore the potential of combining poloxamer 407 and carrageenan for its utilization in an injectable depot drug release system. Reverse thermal gelation of these formulations allow the loc...

Abstract This book provides a practical guide to molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation techniques used in the modelling of simple and complex liquids. Computer simulation is an essential tool in studying the chem...

The parametrization and testing of the OPLS all-atom force field for organic molecules and peptides are described. Parameters for both torsional and nonbonded energetics have been derived, while the bond stretching and a...

A new definition of order called topological order is proposed for two-dimensional systems in which no long-range order of the conventional type exists. The possibility of a phase transition characterized by a change in ...

We assess various approximate forms for the correlation energy per particle of the spin-polarized homogeneous electron gas that have frequently been used in applications of the local spin density approximation to the exc...

The binary solvent system ethanol + ethyl acetate is widely used in the pharmaceutical sciences as a versatile model for studying the solubility of drugs. In this context, the excess molar volumes and the partial molar v...

Fenofibrate is more effective drug as compared to other fibrates. But low bioavailability of it is due to its poor aqueous solubility. The purpose of present study was to improve fenofibrate dissolution through its formu...

The purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate 6-O-palmitoyl ascorbic acid (ASC16) and 6-O-lauril ascorbic acid (ASC12) for their capacity to promote permeation of Ibuprofen (IBU) through hairless mouse skin in...

The relationship between co-integration and error correction models, first suggested in Granger (1981), is here extended and used to develop estimation procedures, tests, and empirical examples. If each element of a vect...

We present an efficient scheme for calculating the Kohn-Sham ground state of metallic systems using pseudopotentials and a plane-wave basis set. In the first part the application of Pulay's DIIS method (direct inversion ...

The Nature of Viscoelastic Behavior. Illustrations of Viscoelastic Behavior of Polymeric Systems. Exact Interrelations among the Viscoelastic Functions. Approximate Interrelations among the Linear Viscoelastic Functions....
