Abstract Nitrogen is an element that is widely found in nature can be used as a gas that is absorbed to help characterize materials, especially on the surface of the material. According to Brunauer – Emmet - Teller (BET) is a theory where nitrogen is used as a gas characterizing material because of its ability to high purity and can interact with solid elements and inert. BET can only produce quantitative data and does not show adsorption phenomena. Molecular dynamics simulation is conducted to observe the phenomena during nitrogen adsorption in amorphous silica, a porous material with a large surface area. In this study, the molecular dynamics simulations are arranged in a state of isotherm, where the temperature used is three variables: 77 K, 100 K, and 150 K in the variation of pressure used 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10 atm for each equilibrium. In molecular dynamics simulation to simulate the interaction between atoms based on Coulomb force is using Lennard-Jones Potential. Based on the simulation results obtain, it was found that at 77 K temperature had the optimal ability to adsorb nitrogen compared to 100 K and 150 K. The higher the pressure given in the system, it will increase the amount of nitrogen adsorbed.

Hydrogen is one of the future source energy because it has environmentally friendly. However, there are still some problems in the storage method of hydrogen. In several studies, it was found that Silicon based material is a promising candidate as a hydrogen storage medium. In this study, the effect of various temperature and pressure to the adsorption of hydrogen on amorphous silica with molecular dynamics simulation using Lennard-Jones potential. In this simulation, the temperature that i used are 233, 253, 273 and 293 K with pressure at each temperature are 1, 2, 5, 10, and 15 atm. The simulations had successfully visualized and indicate that amorphous silica has a good hydrogen storage capability where temperature and pressure affect the amount of hydrogen adsorbed. At low temperature (233 K), the hydrogen concentrations are relatively high than at higher temperature. The best result of hydrogen capacity is 0.048116% that occurred at high pressure (15 atm) with low temperature (233 K) condition.Keywords: hydrogen storage, amorphous silica, molecular dynamics simulation, Lennard-Jones potential, adsorption *The paper has been selected from a collaboration with IPST and 7th ICFCHT 2019 for a conference entitled "Innovation in Polymer Science and Technology (IPST) 2019 in Conjunction with 7th International Conference on Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Technology (ICFCHT 2019) on October 16th - 19th at The Stones Hotel Legian, Bali, Indonesia"

ABSTRACTMany-body forces obtained by the Embedded-Atom Method (EAM) [41 are incorporated into the description of low energy collisions and surface ejection processes in molecular dynamics simulations of sputtering from metal targets. Bombardments of small, single crystal Cu targets (400–500 atoms) in three different orientations ({100}, {110}, {111}) by 5 keV Ar+ ions have been simulated. The results are compared to simulations using purely pair-wise additive interactions. Significant differences in the spectra of ejected atoms are found.

The novel coronavirus, recognized as COVID-19, is the cause of an infection outbreak in December 2019. The effect of temperature and pH changes on the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 were investigated using all-atom molecular dynamics simulation. The obtained results from the root mean square deviation (RMSD) and root mean square fluctuations (RMSF) analyses showed that at a constant temperature of 25℃ and pH=5, the conformational change of the main protease is more significant than that of pH=6 and 7. Also, by increasing temperature from 25℃ to 55℃ at constant pH=7, a remarkable change in protein structure was observed. The radial probability of water molecules around the main protease was decreased by increasing temperature and decreasing pH. The weakening of the binding energy between the main protease and water molecules due to the increasing temperature and decreasing pH has reduced the number of hydrogen bonds between the main protease and water molecules. Finding conditions that alter the conformation of the main protease could be fundamental because this change could affect the virus’s functionality and its ability to impose illness.
