The aim of this work is to study the problem of the existence of a fundamental relation between the interfacial tension of a system of two partially miscible liquids and the surface tensions of the pure substances. It is shown that these properties cannot be correlated from the physical point of view. However, an accurate relation between them may be developed using a mathematical artifact. In the light of this work, the basis of the empirical formula of Girifalco and Good is examined. The weakness of this formula as well as the approximation leading to it are exposed and discussed and, a new equation connecting interfacial and surface tensions is proposed.

Transport properties of dense fluids are fundamentally challenging, because the powerful approaches of equilibrium statistical physics cannot be applied. Polar fluids compound this problem, because the long-range interactions preclude the use of a si
mple effect-diameter approach based solely on hard spheres. Here, we develop a kinetic theory for dipolar hard-sphere fluids that is valid up to high density. We derive a mathematical approximation for the radial distribution function at contact directly from the equation of state, and use it to obtain the shear viscosity. We also perform molecular-dynamics simulations of this system and extract the shear viscosity numerically. The theoretical results compare favorably to the simulations.
We investigate the dynamics of pore-driven polymer translocation by theoretical analysis and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Using the tension propagation theory within the constant flux approximation we derive an explicit equation of motion for
the tension front. From this we derive a scaling relation for the average translocation time $tau$, which captures the asymptotic result $tau propto N_0^{1+ u}$, where $N_0$ is the chain length and $ u$ is the Flory exponent. In addition, we derive the leading correction-to-scaling term to $tau$ and show that all terms of order $N_0^{2 u}$ exactly cancel out, leaving only a finite-chain length correction term due to the effective pore friction, which is linearly proportional to $N_0$. We use the model to numerically include fluctuations in the initial configuration of the polymer chain in addition to thermal noise. We show that when the {it cis} side fluctuations are properly accounted for, the model not only reproduces previously known results but also considerably improves the estimates of the monomer waiting time distribution and the time evolution of the translocation coordinate $s(t)$, showing excellent agreement with MD simulations.
The interfacial tension between immiscible liquids is studied as a function of a model linear surfactant length and concentration using coarse grained, dissipative particle dynamics numerical simulations. The adsorption isotherms obtained from the si
mulations are found to be in agreement with Langmuir model. The reduction of the interfacial tension with increasing surfactant concentration is found to display some common characteristics for all the values of chain length modeled, with our predictions being in agreement with Szyszkowski equation. Lastly, the critical micelle concentration is predicted for all surfactant lengths, finding exponentially decaying behavior, in agreement with Kleven model. It is argued that these findings can be helpful guiding tools in the interpretation of available experiments and in the design of new ones with new surfactants and polymers.
A first-principle multiscale modeling approach is presented, which is derived from the solution of the Ornstein-Zernike equation for the coarse-grained representation of polymer liquids. The approach is analytical, and for this reason is transferable
. It is here applied to determine the structure of several polymeric systems, which have different parameter values, such as molecular length, monomeric structure, local flexibility, and thermodynamic conditions. When the pair distribution function obtained from this procedure is compared with the results from a full atomistic simulation, it shows quantitative agreement. Moreover, the multiscale procedure accurately captures both large and local scale properties while remaining computationally advantageous.
We study autocorrelation functions of energy, heat and entropy densities obtained by molecular dynamics simulations of supercritical Ar and compare them with the predictions of the hydrodynamic theory. It is shown that the predicted by the hydrodynam
ic theory single-exponential shape of the entropy density autocorrelation functions is perfectly reproduced for small wave numbers by the molecular dynamics simulations and permits the calculation of the wavenumber-dependent specific heat at constant pressure. The estimated wavenumber-dependent specific heats at constant volume and pressure, $C_{v}(k)$ and $C_{p}(k)$, are shown to be in the long-wavelength limit in good agreement with the macroscopic experimental values of $C_{v}$ and $C_{p}$ for the studied thermodynamic points of supercritical Ar.
