Threshold feedback control for a collective flashing ratchet: threshold dependence.
We study the threshold control protocol for a collective flashing ratchet. In particular, we analyze the dependence of the current on the values of the thresholds. We have found analytical expressions for the small threshold dependence both for the few and for the many particle cases. For few particles the current is a decreasing function of the thresholds, thus, the maximum current is reached ...
متن کاملFeedback control in a collective flashing ratchet.
An ensemble of Brownian particles in a feedback controlled flashing ratchet is studied. The ratchet potential is switched on and off depending on the position of the particles, with the aim of maximizing the current. We study in detail a protocol which maximizes the instant velocity of the center of mass of the ensemble at any time. This protocol is optimal for one particle and performs better ...
متن کاملEffect of time delay on feedback control of a flashing ratchet
It was recently shown that the use of feedback control can improve the performance of a flashing ratchet. We investigate the effect of a time delay in the implementation of feedback control in a closed-loop collective flashing ratchet, using Langevin dynamics simulations. Surprisingly, for a large ensemble, a well-chosen delay time improves the ratchet performance by allowing the system to sync...

متن کاملDiffusion mediated transport and the flashing ratchet
Diffusion mediated transport is a phenomenon in which a unidirectional motion of particles is achieved as a result of two opposing tendencies: diffusion, which spreads the particles uniformly through the medium and transport, which concentrates the particles at some special sites. The flashing ratchet version of the Brownian motor, a simple model for protein motors, where the switching between ...
