Several natural and industrial processes involve the extraction or retention of a solute by a fluid invading a network of channels. Examples include aquifer contamination, chemical filtration, and coffee extraction. We propose a continuum…

We study a nonlinear kinetic model of mass exchange between interacting grains. The transition rates follow the Arrhenius equation with an activation energy that depends on the grain mass. We show that the activation parameter can be…

This paper presents a modeling framework---mathematical model and computational framework---to study the response of a plastic material due to the presence and transport of a chemical species in the host material. Such a modeling framework…

We examine the transport in a homogeneous porous medium of a finite slice of a solute which adsorbs on the porous matrix following a Langmuir adsorption isotherm and can influence the dynamic viscosity of the solution. In the absence of any…

Biochemical signal transduction, a form of molecular communication, can be modeled using graphical Markov channels with input-modulated transition rates. Such channel models are strongly non-Gaussian. In this paper we use a linear noise…

Here, we develop a time-dependent pore network model (PNM) to simulate the effects of surfactant-induced IFT reduction on immiscible displacement driven by constant inlet pressure, with pressure drops across the network calculated using a…

We propose a stochastic model for intracellular transport processes associated with the activity of molecular motors. This out-of-equilibrium model, based on a generalized Langevin equation, considers a particle immersed in a viscoelastic…

The finite volume algorithm for absorption correction developed by Wunch and Prewitt is examined. This algorithm is based on the numerical integration of the transmission function where three-dimensional quadratic surfaces define the sample…

Within the domain of molecular communications, researchers mimic the techniques in nature to come up with alternative communication methods for collaborating nanomachines. This work investigates the channel transfer function for molecular…

In this paper, we perform receiver design for a diffusive molecular communication environment. Our model includes flow in any direction, sources of information molecules in addition to the transmitter, and enzymes in the propagation…

Many porous media are mixtures of inert and reactive materials, manifesting spatio-chemical heterogeneity. We study the evolution of scalar transport in a chemically heterogeneous material that mimics a green roof soil substrate,…

On the basis of input-output time-domain data collected from a complex simulator, this paper proposes a constructive methodology to infer a reduced-order linear, bilinear or quadratic time invariant dynamical model reproducing the…

There is increasing evidence that the highly ionized multiphase components of AGN disk winds may be due to thermal instability. The ions responsible for forming the observed X-ray absorption lines may only exist in relatively cold clumps…

The characterization of the distance from equilibrium is a debated problem in particular in the treatment of experimental signals. If the signal is a 1-dimensional time-series, such a goal becomes challenging. A paradigmatic example is the…

Linear polymers adsorbing on a wall can be modelled by half-space self-avoiding walks adsorbing on a line in the square lattice, or on a surface in the cubic lattice. In this paper a numerical approach based on the GAS algorithm is used to…

Transport coefficients associated with the mass flux of impurities immersed in a moderately dense granular gas of hard disks or spheres described by the inelastic Enskog equation are obtained by means of the Chapman-Enskog expansion. The…

A microscopic model of adsorption in cluster forming systems with competing interaction is considered. The adsorption process is described by the master equation and modelled by a kinetic Monte Carlo method. The evolution of the particle…

Cleaning pollution from a heterogeneous flow environment is far from simple. We consider the flow capture problem, which has flows and sinks in a heterogeneous environment, and investigate the problem of positioning pollutant capture units.…

Contaminant transport in porous media is often modeled by solving the Advection Dispersion Equation (ADE) which describes the way the contaminant moves within the bulk fluid as well as the movement of the contaminant due to the bulk…

We present high resolution spectroscopic VLT observations of the outflow seen in QSO 2359-1241. These data contain absorption troughs from five resonance Fe II lines with a resolution of ~7 km/s and signal-to-noise ratio per resolution…
