Abstract: Abstract The topic of the project is relevant to the development of novel single-molecule manipulation techniques in biophysics and bionanotechnology where complex DNA-liquid interactions occur. The goals of the project are to verify the proposed numerical method by comparing the results for simple flow conditions with available numerical and analytical results, to analyze the dynamics of the DNA macromolecular exposed to an uniform and shear flow, perform simulations corresponding to the more complex experimental conditions.
