Simulating Microswimmers Under Confinement With Dissipative Particle (Hydro) Dynamics

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

In this work we study microwimmers, whether colloids or polymers, embedded in bulk or in confinement. We explicitly consider hydrodynamic interactions and simulate the swimmers via an implementation inspired by the squirmer model. Concerning the surroundin ...

Selective area epitaxy of GaAs: the unintuitive role of feature size and pitch

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Martin George Friedl, Lucas Güniat, Didem Dede, Nicholas Paul Morgan, Valerio Piazza, Akshay Balgarkashi, Elif Nur Dayi

Selective area epitaxy (SAE) provides the path for scalable fabrication of semiconductor nanostructures in a device-compatible configuration. In the current paradigm, SAE is understood as localized epitaxy, and is modelled by combining planar and self-asse ...

A Bayesian data assimilation framework for lake 3D hydrodynamic models with a physics-preserving particle filtering method using SPUX-MITgcm v1

Damien Bouffard, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo, Firat Ozdemir

We present a Bayesian inference for a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model of Lake Geneva with stochastic weather forcing and high-frequency observational datasets. This is achieved by coupling a Bayesian inference package, SPUX, with a hydrodynamics packa ...

Transport across thin membranes: Effective solute flux jump

François Gallaire, Pier Giuseppe Ledda, Giuseppe Antonio Zampogna

A model to describe the transport across membranes of chemical species dissolved in an incompressible flow is developed via homogenization. The asymptotic matching between the microscopic and macroscopic solute concentration fields leads to a solute flux j ...

Water management of the proton exchange membrane fuel cells: Optimizing the effect of microstructural properties on the gas diffusion layer liquid removal

Jan Van Herle, Hossein Pourrahmani

The formation of water columns inside the gas diffusion layer (GDL) of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), which is harmful phenomenon, can be controlled by the GDL's microstructure and material. Using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), a thre ...

Transport barrier in 5D gyrokinetic flux-driven simulations

Two ways for producing a transport barrier through strong shear of the E x B poloidal flow have been investigated using GYSELA gyrokinetic simulations in a flux-driven regime. The first one uses an external poloidal momentum (i.e. vorticity) source that lo ...

STEPS 4.0: Fast and memory-efficient molecular simulations of neurons at the nanoscale

Felix Schürmann, James Gonzalo King, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, Omar Awile, Alessandro Cattabiani, Christos Kotsalos, Tristan Mathieu Carel, Samuel Marie A Melchior, Baudouin Paul Michel Maria Joseph Del Marmol, Giacomo Castiglioni, Nicola Cantarutti

Recent advances in computational neuroscience have demonstrated the usefulness and importance of stochastic, spatial reaction-diffusion simulations. However, ever increasing model complexity renders traditional serial solvers, as well as naive parallel imp ...

The power of adaptivity in source identification with time queries on the path

Patrick Thiran, Gergely Odor

We study the problem of identifying the source of a stochastic diffusion process spreading on a graph based on the arrival times of the diffusion at a few queried nodes. In a graph

G=(V,E)

, an unknown source node

v^* \in V

is drawn uniformly at random, ...

Slice Estimation in Diffusion MRI of Neonatal and Fetal Brains in Image and Spherical Harmonics Domains Using Autoencoders

Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Gabriel Girard, Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Thomas Yu

Diffusion MRI (dMRI) of the developing brain can provide valuable insights into the white matter development. However, slice thickness in fetal dMRI is typically high (i.e., 3-5 mm) to freeze the in-plane motion, which reduces the sensitivity of the dMRI s ...

Conductive Heat Transfer in Partially Saturated Gas Diffusion Layers with Evaporative Cooling

Sophia Haussener, Mirco Magnini

Heat transport is an important, though often neglected function of gas diffusion layers (GDLs) of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. Thermal conductivity is a key property, especially in partially water saturated GDLs and when the phase change of wat ...

Degradation mechanism of slag blended mortars immersed in sodium sulfate solution

Wei Sun, Karen Scrivener

Additions of slag are usually considered to give cementitious materials which perform well in sulfate bearing environments. This paper compares the deterioration of slag cement blends to those of plain Portland cement and demonstrates that this occurs more ...

Nucleation of Silicon Nanoparticles in Amorphous Silicon Dioxide Matrices

Simone Meloni

In this contribution I summarize our research on the formation of nanoparticles embedded in a-SiO2-x matrices. In particular, I focus on the Si diffusion in SiO2-x matrices, and amorphous-to-crystalline phase transition in Si nanoparticles embedded in SiO2 ...
