A novel combination of quantum chemistry, statistical thermodynamics and state sampling yields an efficient predictive method for the simulation of complex, self-organizing liquid systems.
We report the rigorous extension of COSMO-RS to a self-consistent prediction of the structure and the free energies of molecules in self-organizing inhomogeneous systems. This extends the application range to many new areas, as the prediction of micellar structure and critical micelle concentrations, finite loading effects in micelles and biomembranes, free energies and structure of liquid interfaces, micro-emulsions, and many more of similar problems, which often are of huge practical importance.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
