Abstract

The investigation of CNT channels as nanodelivery systems will be carried out in this chapter describing the translocation of copper atoms along these channels. We will be using the MD simulation as a tool to carry out the modelling and analyses for the CNT systems. The simulation conditions in this section consist of the descriptions for the CNT systems, conditions for the simulation and parameters for the additional equations required for the analyses.
