Falls are a recognized risk factor for unintentional injuries among older adults, accounting for a large proportion of fractures, emergency department visits, and urgent hospitalizations. Human balance and gait research traditionally uses l...

In a great number of technologically and biologically relevant cases, transport of micro- or nanosized objects is governed by both omnipresent thermal fluctuations and confining walls or constrictions limiting the available phase space. The...
Rheotaxis performance increases with group size in a coupled phase model with sensory noise: The effects of noise and group size on rheotaxis [0.03%]

Many fish exhibit rheotaxis, a behavior in which fish orient themselves relative to flow. Rheotaxis confers many benefits, including energetic cost savings and interception of drifting prey. Despite the fact that most species of fish school...

We investigate the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction in an attempt to establish a basis for computation using chemical oscillators coupled via inhibition. The system consists of BZ droplets suspended in oil. Interdrop coupling is governed ...

Transport in confined structures of varying geometry has become the subject of growing attention in recent years since such structures are ubiquitous in biology and technology. In analyzing transport in systems of this type, the notion of e...

We study the transient dynamics of biological oscillators subjected to brief heat pulses. A prospective well-defined experimental system for thermal control of oscillators is the peripheral electroreceptors in paddlefish. Epithelial cells i...

Modeling the dynamics of a confined, semi exible polymer is a challenging problem, owing to the complicated interplay between the configurations of the chain, which are strongly affected by the length scale for the confinement relative to t...

SHAKE is a widely used algorithm to impose general holonomic constraints during molecular simulations. By imposing constraints on stiff degrees of freedom that require integration with small time steps (without the constraints) we are able ...

We study statistical properties, response dynamics, and information transmission in a Hodgkin-Huxley-type neuron system, modeling peripheral electroreceptors in paddlefish. In addition to sodium and potassium currents, the neuron model incl...
Optoacoustic generation of high frequency sound for 3-D ultrasonic imaging in medicine [0.03%]

The most common form of optoacoustic generation is thermoelasticity. Thermoelastic transduction is easy to implement and can be very broadband. However, its major drawback has always been poor conversion efficiency when a metallic film is u...
