Structure and the interactions in the crystal structure of cellulose III-I calculated by using ab initio molecular dynamics simulation

Ueda K., Ishikawa T., Miyamoto H., Hayakawa D., Yokohama National University, JP

The structure and the interactions existing in the crystal of cellulose IIII was evaluated by using the computational chemical approach. Cellulose is one of the most abundant renewable resources and the application of it to [...]

Red Blood Cell Deformation in Flows through a PDMS Hyperbolic Microchannel

Yaginuma T., Oliveira M.S.N., Lima R., Ishikawa T., Yamaguchi T., FEUP - Faculdade de Engenharia da Universidade do Porto, PT

Red blood cells (RBCs) are the major cellular component in blood and are highly deformable in their normal state. RBC deformability is important in the delivery of oxygen to the tissues and plays a major [...]
