Modeling of the van der Waals forces during the adhesion of capsule-shaped bacteria to flat surfaces
A novel model is developed to evaluate the van der Waals (vdW) interactions between a capsule shaped bacterium (P. putida) and flat minerals plates in different approach profiles: Vertically and horizontally. A comparison of the approaches to the well-developed spherical particle to mineral surface...
