Small scale membrane mechanics.
Large scale changes to lipid bilayer shapes are well represented by the Helfrich model. However, there are membrane processes that take place at smaller length scales that this model cannot address. In this work, we present a one-dimensional continuum model that captures the mechanics of the lipid bilayer membrane at the length scale of the lipids themselves. The model is developed using the Co...
متن کاملMembrane quantum mechanics
We consider the multiple M2-branes wrapped on a compact Riemann surface and study the arising quantum mechanics by taking the limit where the size of the Riemann surface goes to zero. The IR quantum mechanical models resulting from the BLG-model and the ABJM-model compactified on a torus are N = 16 and N = 12 superconformal gauged quantum mechanics. After integrating out the auxiliary gauge fie...
متن کاملParticle Scale Reservoir Mechanics
Particle Scale Reservoir Mechanics — This paper summarizes some developments and applications of discrete particle modelling based on the commercial code PFC (Particle Flow Code). The following examples with relevance to geomechanical reservoir behaviour are described: – Numerical and experimental results are shown illustrating nonlinear evolution of depletion-induced compaction and stress path...
متن کاملMechanics Of Stacked Membrane Compartments.
Many cellular processes depend on complex relations among the cytoskeleton and the membrane of cell organelles. In order to gain an insight into mechanics of these complexes, we performed a theoretical analysis of stacked membrane compartments, such as the stack of the Golgi cisternae. As the first approximation of the problem, the analysis takes into account the membrane mechanical properties ...
متن کاملOn Designing of Membrane Thickness and Thermal Conductivity for Large Scale Membrane Distillation Modules
Membrane distillation has the potential to concentrate solutions to their saturation level, thus offering the possibility to recover valuable salts from the solutions. The process performance and stability, however, is strongly dependent upon the features of membranes applied. In addition, several other parameters, membrane thickness and thermal conductivity significantly affect the process per...
