Journal Article
Akinchina, A., & Linse, P. (2007). Diblock polyampholytes grafted onto spherical particles : effect of stiffness, charge density, and grafting density. Langmuir, 23(3), 1465-1472. https://doi.org/10.1021/la062481r

The structure of spherical brushes formed by symmetric diblock polyampholytes end-grafted onto small spherical particles in aqueous solution is examined within the framework of the so-called primitive model using Monte Carlo simulations. The proper... Read More about Diblock polyampholytes grafted onto spherical particles : effect of stiffness, charge density, and grafting density.

A computerized dynamic synthesis method for generating human aerial movements (2007)
Journal Article
Leboeuf, F., Bessonnet, G., & Lacouture, P. (2007). A computerized dynamic synthesis method for generating human aerial movements. Journal of Computer Science, 6, 4-18

A computerized method based on optimal dynamic synthesis was developed for generating the flight phase of somersaults. A virtual gymnast is modeled as a planar seven-segment multibody system with six internal degrees of freedom. The aerial movemen...
