Reweighted Manifold Learning of Collective Variables from Enhanced Sampling Simulations (open access)

Reweighted Manifold Learning of Collective Variables from Enhanced Sampling Simulations

Article provides a general reweighting framework based on anisotropic diffusion maps for manifold learning that takes into account that the learning data set is sampled from a biased probability distribution. The authors show that their proposed framework can be used in many manifold learning techniques on data from both standard and enhanced sampling simulations.

The Crucial Role of Solvation Forces in the Steric Stabilization of Nanoplatelets (open access)

The Crucial Role of Solvation Forces in the Steric Stabilization of Nanoplatelets

Article says that the steric stability of inorganic colloidal particles in an apolar solvent is usually described in terms of the balance between three contributions: the van der Waals attraction, the free energy of mixing, and the ligand compression. The authors demonstrate that for sufficiently large nanoplatelets, solvation forces are proportional to the interacting facet area, and their strength is intrinsically tied to the softness of the ligand shell.

Anomalous thermo-osmotic conversion performance of ionic covalent-organic-framework membranes in response to charge variations (open access)

Anomalous thermo-osmotic conversion performance of ionic covalent-organic-framework membranes in response to charge variations

Authors of the article systematically investigated how the membrane charge populations affect permselectivity by decoupling their effects from the impact of the pore structure using a multivariate strategy for constructing covalent-organic-framework membranes. The complex interplay between pore-pore interactions in response to charge variations for ion transport across the upscaled nanoporous membranes helps explain the obtained results. This study has far-reaching implications for the rational design of ionic membranes to augment energy extraction rather than intuitively focusing on achieving high densities.
