The article presents results of preliminary study of solutions to recently offered basic thermodynamic equation for equilibrium in chemical systems with focus on chaotic behavior. Classical part of that equation was investigated earlier in…
A chemotaxis-Navier-Stokes system is studied under dynamical boundary conditions in a bounded convex domain with smooth boundary. This models the interaction of populations of swimming bacteria with the surrounding fluid. The existence of a…
We investigate the hydrodynamic behavior and local equilibrium of the multilane exclusion process, whose invariant measures were studied in our previous paper \cite{mlt1a}. The dynamics on each lane follows a hyperbolic time scaling,…
Chemotaxis is typically modeled in the context of cellular motion towards a static, exogenous source of chemoattractant. Here, we propose a time-dependent mechanism of chemotaxis in which a self-propelled particle ({\it e.g.}, a cell)…
Aerotaxis is the particular form of chemotaxis in which oxygen plays the role of both the attractant and the repellent. Aerotaxis occurs without methylation adaptation, and it leads to fast and complete aggregation toward the most favorable…
This paper studies a chemotaxis system where cells move in response to a chemical signal within a confined habitat. The model includes external source terms that combine local and nonlocal growth with dampening effects. The main focus is on…
We study the atomistic-to-continuum limit of a class of energy functionals for crystalline materials via Gamma-convergence. We consider energy densities that may depend on interactions between all points of the lattice and we give…
In this paper homogenization of a mathematical model for biomechanics of a plant tissue with randomly distributed cells is considered. Mechanical properties of a plant tissue are modelled by a strongly coupled system of…
A new class of models, generalizing Asymmetric Exclusion Process for many parallel interacting channels, is proposed. We couple the models with boundary reservoirs, study boundary-driven phase transitions and show that usually taken…
A multicomponent extension of our recent theory of simple fluids [ U.M.B. Marconi and S. Melchionna, Journal of Chemical Physics, 131, 014105 (2009) ] is proposed to describe miscible and immiscible liquid mixtures under inhomogeneous, non…
Kinetic and hydrodynamic theories are widely employed for describing the collective behaviour of active matter systems. At the fluctuating level, these have been obtained from explicit coarse-graining procedures in the limit where each…
We study a system of particles in the interval $[0,\epsilon^{-1}] \cap \mathbb Z$, $\epsilon^{-1}$ a positive integer. The particles move as symmetric independent random walks (with reflections at the endpoints); simultaneously new…
In this report, we analyse and simulate a chemotaxis model given by a system of stochastic reaction-diffusion equations posed on an evolving surface.
I describe the results for the critical line and the thermodynamics of different phases of QCD which have been obtained by lattice simulations with an imaginary chemical potential, and review motivations and merits of the different…
Chemical signaling is one of the ubiquitous mechanisms by which inter-cellular communication takes place at the microscopic level, particularly via chemotaxis. Such multi-cellular systems are popularly studied using continuum, mean-field…
We introduce a linked-cluster based computational approach that allows one to study quantum quenches in lattice systems in the thermodynamic limit. This approach is used to study quenches in one-dimensional lattices. We provide evidence…
We obtain the hydrodynamic limit of a simple exclusion process in an inhomogeneous environment of divergence form. Our main assumption is a suitable version of Gamma-convergence for the environment. In this way we obtain an unified approach…
Chemotaxis, the directional locomotion of cells towards a source of a chemical gradient, is an integral part of many biological processes - for example, bacteria motion, single-cell or multicellular organisms development, immune response,…
Every mathematical model describing physical phenomena is an approximation to model reality, hence has its limitations. Depending on characteristic values of the variables in the model, different aspects of the model and, e.g.,…
We develop our recently proposed lattice-Boltzmann method for the non-equilibrium dynamics of amphiphilic fluids (Chen, Boghosian, Coveney and Nekovee, Proc. Roy. Soc. London A, 456, 1431 (2000).) Our method maintains an orientational…
