Modeling and Simulating Asymmetrical Conductance Changes in Gramicidin Pores

Shixin Xu, Minxin Chen, Sheereen Majd, Xingye Yue, Chun Liu (2014)

Molecular Based Mathematical Biology

Similarity:

Gramicidin A is a small and well characterized peptide that forms an ion channel in lipid membranes. An important feature of gramicidin A (gA) pore is that its conductance is affected by the electric charges near the its entrance. This property has led to the application of gramicidin A as a biochemical sensor for monitoring and quantifying a number of chemical and enzymatic reactions. Here, a mathematical model of conductance changes of gramicidin A pores in response to the presence...

Bayesian Analysis for Robust Synthesis of Nanostructures

Nader Ebrahimi, Mahmoud Shehadeh, Kristin McCullough (2012)

Nanoscale Systems: Mathematical Modeling, Theory and Applications

Similarity:

Nanomaterials, because of their unique properties such as extremely small size and increased ratio of surface area to volume, have a great potential in many industrial applications that involve electronics, sensors, solar cells, super-strong materials, coatings, drug delivery, and nanomedicine. They have the potential also to improve the environment by direct applications of these materials to detect, prevent and remove pollutants. While nanomaterials present seemingly limitless possibilities,...

Modeling the tip-sample interaction in atomic force microscopy with Timoshenko beam theory

Julio R. Claeyssen, Teresa Tsukazan, Leticia Tonetto, Daniela Tolfo (2013)

Nanoscale Systems: Mathematical Modeling, Theory and Applications

Similarity:

A matrix framework is developed for single and multispan micro-cantilevers Timoshenko beam models of use in atomic force microscopy (AFM). They are considered subject to general forcing loads and boundary conditions for modeling tipsample interaction. Surface effects are considered in the frequency analysis of supported and cantilever microbeams. Extensive use is made of a distributed matrix fundamental response that allows to determine forced responses through convolution and to absorb...

The Anh Bui, Jun Cao, Luong Dang Ky, Dachun Yang, Sibei Yang (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

Similarity:

Let X be a metric space with doubling measure and L a one-to-one operator of type ω having a bounded H∞ -functional calculus in L2(X) satisfying the reinforced (pL; qL) off-diagonal estimates on balls, where pL ∊ [1; 2) and qL ∊ (2;∞]. Let φ : X × [0;∞) → [0;∞) be a function such that φ (x;·) is an Orlicz function, φ(·;t) ∊ A∞(X) (the class of uniformly Muckenhoupt weights), its uniformly critical upper type index l(φ) ∊ (0;1] and φ(·; t) satisfies the uniformly reverse Hölder inequality...

Nonexistence Results for Semilinear Equations in Carnot Groups

Fausto Ferrari, Andrea Pinamonti (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

Similarity:

In this paper, following [3], we provide some nonexistence results for semilinear equations in the the class of Carnot groups of type ★.This class, see [20], contains, in particular, all groups of step 2; like the Heisenberg group, and also Carnot groups of arbitrarly large step. Moreover, we prove some nonexistence results for semilinear equations in the Engel group, which is the simplest Carnot group that is not of type ★.

Transmission-line laser modeling of carrier diffusion in VCSEL

Vladimir Gerasik, Jacek Miloszewski, Marek S. Wartak (2014)

Nanoscale Systems: Mathematical Modeling, Theory and Applications

Similarity:

The transmission-line laser model (TLLM) is an equivalent-circuit model which provides stable and explicit matrix routines for the solution of the laser rate equations. The application of TLLM method to the analysis of a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) requires certain modifications. The theoretical basis of the model is considered, including space discretization of the inhomogeneous VCSEL cavity so that it yields the synchronization condition. The main attention is paid...

On Asymmetric Distances

Andrea C.G. Mennucci (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

Similarity:

In this paper we discuss asymmetric length structures and asymmetric metric spaces. A length structure induces a (semi)distance function; by using the total variation formula, a (semi)distance function induces a length. In the first part we identify a topology in the set of paths that best describes when the above operations are idempotent. As a typical application, we consider the length of paths defined by a Finslerian functional in Calculus of Variations. In the second part we generalize...

Analyzing nonlocal effects in the plasmon spectra of a metal slab by the Green’s function technique for hydrodynamic model

Naijing Kang, Z.L. Miškovic, Ying-Ying Zhang, Yuan-Hong Song, You-Nian Wang (2014)

Nanoscale Systems: Mathematical Modeling, Theory and Applications

Similarity:

We study the dynamic response of a metal slab containing electron gas described by the hydrodynamic model with dispersion. The resulting wave equation for the perturbed electron density is solved by means of the Green’s function that satisfies Neumann boundary conditions at the endpoints of the slab. This solution is coupled with the electrostatic potential, which is expressed in terms of the Green’s function for the Poisson equation for a layered structure consisting of three dielectric...

Nonlocal Electrostatics in Spherical Geometries Using Eigenfunction Expansions of Boundary-Integral Operators

Jaydeep P. Bardhan, Matthew G. Knepley, Peter Brune (2015)

Molecular Based Mathematical Biology

Similarity:

In this paper, we present an exact, infinite-series solution to Lorentz nonlocal continuum electrostatics for an arbitrary charge distribution in a spherical solute. Our approach relies on two key steps: (1) re-formulating the PDE problem using boundary-integral equations, and (2) diagonalizing the boundaryintegral operators using the fact that their eigenfunctions are the surface spherical harmonics. To introduce this uncommon approach for calculations in separable geometries, we first...

Compactness of Special Functions of Bounded Higher Variation

Luigi Ambrosio, Francesco Ghiraldin (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

Similarity:

Given an open set Ω ⊂ Rm and n > 1, we introduce the new spaces GBnV(Ω) of Generalized functions of bounded higher variation and GSBnV(Ω) of Generalized special functions of bounded higher variation that generalize, respectively, the space BnV introduced by Jerrard and Soner in [43] and the corresponding SBnV space studied by De Lellis in [24]. In this class of spaces, which allow as in [43] the description of singularities of codimension n, the distributional jacobian Ju need not...

Mathematical modeling of semiconductor quantum dots based on the nonparabolic effective-mass approximation

Jinn-Liang Liu (2012)

Nanoscale Systems: Mathematical Modeling, Theory and Applications

Similarity:

Within the effective mass and nonparabolic band theory, a general framework of mathematical models and numerical methods is developed for theoretical studies of semiconductor quantum dots. It includes single-electron models and many-electron models of Hartree-Fock, configuration interaction, and current-spin density functional theory approaches. These models result in nonlinear eigenvalue problems from a suitable discretization. Cubic and quintic Jacobi-Davidson methods of block or nonblock...
