Simulation of desolvated self-assembly in a picoliter drop of colloidal solution by dissipative particle dynamics

Lebedev-Stepanov P., Photochemistry Center, RU

A method of dissipative particle dynamics of charged colloidal submicro- and nanoparticles in evaporating picoliter droplet of solution deposited on plane substrate is proposed for investigation of self-assembly and self-ordering of colloids during solute evaporation, [...]

Stochastic Analysis of Particle-Pair Transport in Brownian Ratchet Device

Retkute R., Gleeson J.P., University College Cork, IE

The motion of particle pairs in a Brownian ratchet device is studied using Langevin simulations. A Lennard-Jones interaction between the particles is added to a standard spring-bead model. The effects of such interaction upon a [...]

A Minnow, an E. Coli and Ubiquinone: The Story of Rectified Brownian Motion

Fox R.F., School of Physics, US

Rectified Brownian motion provides a mechanistic alternative to the power stroke model for the function of motor proteins and other enzyme complexes. ATP is the source of metabolic free energy for motor proteins such as [...]

Brownian Dynamics Based Particle Mesh Simulation of Ionic Soulutions and Channels

Millar C., Asenov A., Roy S., Glasgow University, UK

We present a methods based around the Self Constistent solution of the coupled Langevin/Poisson equations for the simulation of ionic solutions.
