Steady states for a model of interacting particles

A nonlocal elliptic problem modelled on the equations appearing in the theory of electrolytes is studied.     

A two-compartment model interacting with dynamic drugs

By combining the total cell evolution curve and a two-compartment model interacting with dynamic anti-cancer agents, the evolution of subpopulations has been analytically obtained and investigated in this work.     

A chain of interacting particles under strain

We investigate the behaviour of a chain of interacting Brownian particles with one end fixed and the other end moving away at slow speed ε>0, in the limit of small noise. The interaction between particles is through a pairwise potential U with finite range b>0. We consider both overdamped and underdamped dynamics.     

A model for an interacting quantum field

We present here a close nonlinear analog to the free quantum field of Bose statistics, in which the linear one-particle space is replaced by a nonlinear infinite-dimensional Hermitian symmetric space D, and the quantum field is constructed as a Hilbert space of holomorphic functions on D.     

A stochastic model for two interacting species

An exactly solvable stochastic model for two interacting species with a prey-predator relationship in the presence of self-interaction is investigated. The parameters describing the interactions are assumed to be represented by a dichotomic Markov process. Explicit expressions are derived for the time development of the average of the logarithm of the population size in respect of each species and their asymptotic behaviours are discussed.     

Two-compartment model interacting with proliferating regulatory factor

In this short work, by combining the total cell evolution curve and the two-compartment model, the evolution of one of the subpopulations is simulated while the system interacts with a proliferating regulatory factor.     

Direct numerical simulation of particles in a fluid interacting with a wall

We develop a code to be applied in the context of the cleaning of wafer surfaces by hydrodynamic forces. Our goal is to study the detachment of (submicron) particles, exposed to a shear flow, from a wall by means of direct numerical simulation. The particles are treated as rigid bodies fully interacting with the fluid. To simulate moving particles in the fluid we implement an immersed boundary method with direct forcing into OpenFOAM. The particle-wall interaction is treated with a soft contact model. As first simple examples we study the elastic normal impact of a cylinder onto a wall as well as the onset of sliding of a cylinder pressed to a horizontal wall by gravity under a time-depended drag force.

On a stochastic interacting model with stepping-stone noises

In this note, we investigate the existence of a weak mild solution to a stochastic interacting model (described by a system of stochastic partial differential equations) with stepping-stone noises by adopting a weak convergence argument.     

Positivity of the self-diffusion matrix of interacting Brownian particles with hard core

We prove the positivity of the self-diffusion matrix of interacting Brownian particles with hard core when the dimension of the space is greater than or equal to 2. Here the self-diffusion matrix is a coefficient matrix of the diffusive limit of a tagged particle. We will do this for all activities, z>0, of Gibbs measures; in particular, for large z– the case of high density particles. A typical example of such a particle system is an infinite amount of hard core Brownian balls. Received: 22 September 1997 / Revised version: 15 January 1998     

The macroscopic system of Einstein-Maxwell equations for a system of interacting particles

We derive the macroscopic Einstein—Maxwell equations up to the second-order terms, in the interaction for systems with dominating electromagnetic interactions between particles (e.g., radiation-dominated cosmological plasma in the expanding Universe before the recombination moment). The ensemble averaging of the microscopic Einstein and Maxwell equations and of the Liouville equations for the random functions of each type of particle leads to a closed system of equations consisting of the macroscopic Einstein and Maxwell equations and the kinetic equations for one-particle distribution functions for each type of particle. The macroscopic Einstein equations for a system of electromagnetically and gravitationally interacting particles differ from the classical Einstein equations in having additional terms in the lefthand side due to the interaction. These terms are given by a symmetric rank-two traceless tensor with zero divergence. Explicitly, these terms are represented as momentum-space integrals of the expressions containing one-particle distribution functions for each type of particle and have much in common with similar terms in the left-hand side of the macroscopic Einstein equations previously obtained for a system of self-gravitating particles. The macroscopic Maxwell equations for a system of electromagnetically and gravitationally interacting particles also differ from the classical Maxwell equations in having additional terms in the left-hand side due to simultaneous effects described by general relativity and the interaction effects.
