We apply and develop computational chemistry calculations based on classical and ab initio molecular dynamics methods to investigate processes of crystal nucleation, aqueous electrolyte solutions, and catalysis. Examples of the applications of this method include the characterize the reactivity of metals in solution and of mineral-liquid interfaces and bridging atomistic simulations and thermodynamic models of aqueous electrolyte solutions.
