Coarse Grained Simulations

In an attempt to bridge the gap between computational and experimental studies, coarse-grained simulations are used to study nematic Liquid Crystal (LC) nanodroplets dispersed in water. A LC phase diagram is generated as a function of droplet size and temperature, and the effect of adding surfactants is quantified.
