The transport of suspended Brownian particles dc-driven along corrugated narrow channels is numerically investigated in the regime of finite damping. We show that inertial corrections cannot be neglected as long as the width of the channel…
We analyze the diffusive transport of Brownian particles in narrow channels with periodically varying cross-section. The geometrical confinements lead to entropic barriers, the particle has to overcome in order to proceed in transport…
The diffusive transport of biased Brownian particles in a two-dimensional symmetric channel is investigated numerically considering both the no-flow and the reflection boundary conditions at the channel boundaries. Here, the geometrical…
We numerically investigate the transport of a suspended overdamped Brownian particle which is driven through a two-dimensional rectangular array of circular obstacles with finite radius. Two limiting cases are considered in detail, namely,…
We study the transport of Brownian particles under a constant driving force and moving in channels that present a varying centerline but have constant aperture width. We investigate two types of channels, {\it solid} channels in which the…
The transport phenomenon(directional movement) of self-propelled Brownian particles moving in a smooth corrugated confined channel is investigated. It is found that large $x$ direction noise intensity should reduce particles directional…
Diffusive transport of particles or, more generally, small objects is a ubiquitous feature of physical and chemical reaction systems. In configurations containing confining walls or constrictions transport is controlled both by the…
We investigate the transport of Brownian particles in a two-dimensional potential under the action of a uniform external force. The potential is periodic in one direction and confines the particle to a narrow channel of varying…
Transport of spherical Brownian particles of finite size possessing radii through narrow channels with varying cross-section area is considered. Applying the so-called Fick-Jacobs approximation, i.e. assuming fast equilibration in…
This paper presents experimental results about transport of dilute suspensions of nano-objects in silicon-glass micrometric and sub-micrometric channels. Two kinds of objects are used: solid, rigid latex beads and spherical capsule-shaped,…
Single-file transport in pore-like structures constitute an important topic for both theory and experiment. For hardcore interacting particles, a good understanding of the collective dynamics has been achieved recently. Here we study how…
We investigate the average velocity of Brownian particles driven by a constant external force when constrained to move in two-dimensional, weakly-corrugated channels. We consider both the geometric confinement of the particles between solid…
Transport of Brownian particles in a two-dimensional asymmetric tube is investigated by applying a polarized field. From the Brownian dynamics simulations we find that the longitudinal current can be enhanced remarkably by applying a weakly…
We computationally study the behavior of underdamped active Brownian particles in a sheared channel geometry. Due to their underdamped dynamics, the particles carry momentum a characteristic distance away from the boundary before it is…
We consider the impact of inertia on biased Brownian motion of point particles in a two-dimensional channel with sinusoidally varying width. If the time scales of the problem separate, the adiabatic elimination of the transverse degrees of…
We investigate the influence of an external magnetic field (torque) on the motion of Brownian particles confined in a channel geometry with varying width. Furthermore, the particles are driven by random fluctuations modeled by the…
We study impact of inertia on directed transport of a Brownian particle under non-equilibrium conditions: the particle moves in a one-dimensional periodic and symmetric potential, is driven by both an unbiased time-periodic force and a…
We study numerically the motion of a one dimensional array of Brownian particles in a washboard potential, driven by an external stochastic force and interacting via short range repulsive forces. In particular, we investigate the role of…
The dynamics of Brownian motion has widespread applications extending from transport in designed micro-channels up to its prominent role for inducing transport in molecular motors and Brownian motors. Here, Brownian transport is studied in…
Dynamic particle-scale numerical simulations are used to show that the shear thickening observed in dense colloidal, or Brownian, suspensions is of a similar nature to that observed in non-colloidal suspensions, i.e., a stress-induced…
