We simulate electron transport in ultra small mercury-cadmium-telluride n-n-n diodes using a hydrodynamic approach. A numerical staggered solution is employed to treat the coupled hydrodynamic and Poisson equations, where the spatial profiles of the main transport parameters within the diodes are analyzed including the Auger generationrecombination processes. Our numerical results show that, ev...

We incorporate hydrodynamic interactions (HIs) in a coarse-grained and structure-based model of proteins by employing the Rotne-Prager hydrodynamic tensor. We study several small proteins and demonstrate that HIs facilitate folding. We also study HIV-1 protease and show that HIs make the flap closing dynamics faster. The HIs are found to affect time correlation functions in the vicinity of the ...

We present a scheme for coarse-graining hydrodynamic interactions in an isolated flexible homopolymer molecule in solution. In contrast to the conventional bead-spring model that employs spherical beads of fixed radii to represent the hydrodynamic characteristics of coarse-grained segments, we show that our procedure leads naturally to a discrete model of a polymer molecule as a chain of orient...

The floating photovoltaic (FPV) array, which consists of tens or hundreds rows systems, exhibits great economic and environmental benefits. An FPV array arranged in the ocean will be subjected to combined action wind, waves, currents during installation, service, maintenance processes; however, systematic research this field is still lacking. As a representative study on hydrodynamic characteri...

The Next Generation Subsea Production System (NextGen SPS) is considered as a competitive alternative system used for offshore petroleum production in ultra-deep sea based on the artificial seabed technology. Immersed Buoyant Platform (IBP), which located at constant depth below free surface of water to minimize wave loading, provides buoyant stable platform supporting well completion equipment...

This paper describes hydrodynamic focusing inside a micromachined flow cytometer. Flow cytometry is a process whereby cells are analyzed and sorted based on hydrodynamic focusing phenomenon and specific cellular characteristics. In this study, the hydrodynamic focusing phenomenon is first modeled by employing potential flow theory. Then the flow field inside the flow cytometer is numerically si...
