Energy dissipation in an adaptive molecular circuit
The ability to monitor nutrient and other environmental conditions with high sensitivity is crucial for cell growth and survival. Sensory adaptation allows a cell to recover its sensitivity after a transient response to a shift in the strength of extracellular stimulus. The working principles of adaptation have been established previously based on rate equations which do not consider fluctuatio...
متن کاملTheory of molecular machines. II. Energy dissipation from molecular machines.
Single molecules perform a variety of tasks in cells, from replicating, controlling and translating the genetic material to sensing the outside environment. These operations all require that specific actions take place. In a sense, each molecule must make tiny decisions. To make a decision, each "molecular machine" must dissipate an energy Py in the presence of thermal noise Ny. The number of b...
متن کاملAn Energy Based Adaptive Pushover Analysis for Nonlinear Static Procedures
Nonlinear static procedure (NSP) is a common technique to predict seismic demands on various building structures by subjecting a monotonically increasing horizontal loading (pushover) to the structure. Therefore, the pushover analysis is an important part of each NSP. Accordingly, the current paper aims at investigating the efficiencyof various algorithms of lateral load patterns applied to the...
متن کاملMagnetotail energy dissipation during an auroral substorm
Violent releases of space plasma energy from the Earth's magnetotail during substorms produce strong electric currents and bright aurora. But what modulates these currents and aurora and controls dissipation of the energy released in the ionosphere? Using data from the THEMIS fleet of satellites and ground-based imagers and magnetometers, we show that plasma energy dissipation is controlled by ...
متن کاملDissipation in molecular junctions.
A recently developed theory that formulates the phenomena of inelastic transport and current-driven dynamics in molecular-scale electronics within a time-dependent scattering approach is extended to account for dissipation of the current-induced excitation through coupling to electrode phonons and electron-hole pairs. Our approach treats the electronic transport, the nuclear dynamics, and the e...
