Coupled Aggregation and Sedimentation Processes: Three Dimensional Off-Lattice Simulations
The coupled aggregation and sedimentation process were studied by means of three dimension computer simulations. For this purpose, a large prism with no periodic boundary conditions for the sedimentation direction was considered. Furthermore, three equally sized and mutually excluded regions were defined inside the prism, a top, a middle and a bottom region. This allows to study the time evolut...
متن کاملCoupled aggregation and sedimentation processes: the sticking probability effect.
The influence of the sticking probability P and the drift velocity on kinetics and structure formation arising in coupled aggregation and sedimentation processes was studied by means of simulations. For this purpose, a large prism with no periodical conditions for the sedimentation direction was considered allowing for sediment formation at the prism base. The time evolution of the cluster size...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulations of Off-Lattice Polymers
We point out that a newly introduced recursive algorithm for lattice polymers has a much wider range of applicability. In particular, we apply it to the simulation of off-lattice polymers with Lennard-Jones potentials between nonbonded monomers and either delta or harmonic potentials between bonded monomers. Our algorithm allows particularly easy calculations of the free energy, and seems in ge...
متن کاملStrategies for Optimize Off-Lattice Aggregate Simulations
Growth processes occurring far from equilibrium are widespread in nature and technology. Examples include electrodeposition [1], viscous fingering [2], bacterial colonies [3], and neurite formation [4]. Computer models for the growth of clusters, generally constituted of identical particles, are useful tools for the understanding of aggregation phenomena. The main contribution of such models is...
متن کاملCompetition between protein folding and aggregation: A three-dimensional lattice-model simulation
Aggregation of protein molecules resulting in the loss of biological activity and the formation of insoluble deposits represents a serious problem for the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and in medicine. Considerable experimental and theoretical efforts are being made in order to improve our understanding of, and ability to control, the process. In the present work, we describe a Mo...
