    • Can one predict a drop contact angle? 

      Silvestrini, Marion Lucia; Tinti, Antonio; Giacomello, Alberto; Brito, Carolina (2021) [Artigo de periódico]
      The study of wetting phenomena is of great interest due to the multifaceted technological applications of hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. The theoretical approaches proposed by Wenzel and later by Cassie and Baxter ...
    • Direct coupling analysis of epistasis in allosteric materials 

      Bravi, Barbara; Ravasio, Riccardo; Brito, Carolina; Wyart, Matthieu (2020) [Artigo de periódico]
      In allosteric proteins, the binding of a ligand modifies function at a distant active site. Such allosteric pathways can be used as target for drug design, generating considerable interest in inferring them from sequence ...
    • Fast generation of ultrastable computer glasses by minimization of an augmented potential energy 

      Kapteijns, Geert H.; Ji, Wencheng; Brito, Carolina; Wyart, Matthieu; Lerner, Edan (2019) [Artigo de periódico]
      We present a model and protocol that enable the generation of extremely stable computer glasses at minimal computational cost. The protocol consists of an instantaneous quench in an augmented potential energy landscape, ...
    • Geographic and gender diversity in the Brazilian Academy of Sciences 

      Ferrari, Nathália Carpenedo; Martell, Raquel Wolter; Okido, Daniela Hiromi; Bezerra, Grasiele Romanzini; Savela, Viviane Magnan; Barbosa, Marcia Cristina Bernardes; Brito, Carolina (2018) [Artigo de periódico]
      Recent studies have shown that diversity in race and gender is important to improve competitiveness, creativity and innovation. However, many studies have shown that the universe of science is not diverse in none of these ...
    • Geometric and chemical nonuniformity may induce the stability of more than one wetting state in the same hydrophobic surface 

      Lazzari, Davi; Brito, Carolina (2019) [Artigo de periódico]
      It is well established that roughness and chemistry play a crucial role in the wetting properties of a substrate. Yet, few studies have analyzed systematically the effect of the nonuniformity in the distribution of texture ...
    • Jamming with tunable roughness 

      Ikeda, Harukuni; Brito, Carolina; Wyart, Matthieu; Zamponi, Francesco (2020) [Artigo de periódico]
      We introduce a new model to study the effect of surface roughness on the jamming transition. By performing numerical simulations, we show that for a smooth surface, the jamming transition density and the contact number at ...
    • Low-frequency vibrations of soft colloidal glasses 

      Chen, Ken; Ellenbroek, Wouter G.; Zhang, Zexin; Chen, Daniel T. N.; Yunker, Peter J.; Henkes, Silke; Brito, Carolina; Dauchot, Olivier; Van Saarloos, Win; Liu, Andrea J.; Yodh, Arjun G. (2010) [Artigo de periódico]
      We conduct experiments on two-dimensional packings of colloidal thermosensitive hydrogel particles whose packing fraction can be tuned above the jamming transition by varying the temperature. By measuring displacement ...
    • Modeling oil–water separation with controlled wetting properties 

      Gavazzoni, Cristina; Silvestrini, Marion Lucia; Brito, Carolina (2021) [Artigo de periódico]
      Several oil–water separation techniques have been proposed to improve the capacity of cleaning water. With the technological possibility of producing materials with antagonist wetting behavior, for example, a substrate ...
