Flexible control of magnetization switching by electrical manners is crucial for applications of spin-orbitronics. Besides of a switching current that is parallel to an applied field, a bias current that is normal to the switching current…
Collective actuation in active solids - the spontaneous coherent excitation of a few vibrational modes - emerges from a feedback between structural deformations and the orientation of active forces. It is an excellent candidate as a basic…
We study a system of dynamical units, each of which shows excitable or oscillatory behavior, depending on the choice of parameters. When we couple these units with repressive bonds, we can control the duration of collective oscillations for…
In diffusion-based molecular communication (DMC), one important functionality of a transmitter nano-machine is signal modulation. In particular, the transmitter has to be able to control the release of signaling molecules for modulation of…
We describe an approach to model genetic regulatory networks at the level of promotion-inhibition circuitry through a class of stochastic spin models that includes spatial and temporal density fluctuations in a natural way. The formalism…
We investigate calcium signaling feedback through calcium-activated potassium channels of a dendritic spine by applying the immersed boundary method with electrodiffusion. We simulate the stochastic gating of such ion channels and the…
The information transfer in the thalamus is blocked dynamically during sleep, in conjunction with the occurence of spindle waves. As the theoretical understanding of the mechanism remains incomplete, we analyze two modeling approaches for a…
A variety of oscillations are observed in pancreatic islets.We establish a model, incorporating two oscillatory systems of different time scales: One is the well-known bursting model in pancreatic beta-cells and the other is the…
Synthetic molecular communication (SMC) is a key enabler for future healthcare systems in which Internet of Bio-Nano-Things (IoBNT) devices facilitate the continuous monitoring of a patient's biochemical signals. To close the loop between…
This work deals with the closed-loop control of streaky structures induced by free-stream turbulence in a zero-pressure gradient, transitional boundary layer, by means of localized sensors and actuators. A linear quadratic gaussian…
In our previous work, we studied an interconnected bursting neuron model for insect locomotion, and its corresponding phase oscillator model, which at high speed can generate stable tripod gaits with three legs off the ground simultaneously…
Brain dynamics can exhibit narrow-band nonlinear oscillations and multistability. For a subset of disorders of consciousness and motor control, we hypothesize that some symptoms originate from the inability to spontaneously transition from…
Exploiting vibrational excitation for the dynamic control of material properties is an attractive goal with wide-ranging technological potential. Most metal-to-insulator transitions are mediated by few structural modes and are thus ideal…
Recent studies have pointed out the importance of transient synchronization between widely distributed neural assemblies to understand conscious perception. These neural assemblies form intricate networks of neurons and synapses whose…
Mammalian functional architecture flexibly adapts, transitioning from integration where information is distributed across the cortex, to segregation where information is focal in densely connected communities of brain regions. This…
A novel model for dynamical traps in intermittent human control is proposed. It describes probabilistic, step-wise transitions between two modes of a subject's behavior - active and passive phases in controlling an object's dynamics - using…
Controlling spatial patterns in synthetic biological systems remains challenging due to poor parameter robustness and limited experimental tunability. We introduce two complementary mechanisms-the pattern switch and the pattern dial-to…
A long tradition in theoretical neuroscience casts sensory processing in the brain as the process of inferring the maximally consistent interpretations of imperfect sensory input. Recently it has been shown that Gamma-band inhibition can…
Adhesion-independent migration is a prominent mode of cell motility in confined environments, yet the physical principles that guide such movement remain incompletely understood. We present a phase-field model for simulating the motility of…
We study the qualitative behavior of a model to represent local regulation in a metabolic network. The model is based on the end-product control structure introduced in [A. Goelzer, F. Bekkal Brikci, I. Martin-Verstraete et al., BMC Syst…
