Constructing thermodynamically consistent models with a non-ideal equation of state
Erkan Tuzel, Thomas Ihle, Daniel M. Kroll
A recently introduced particle-based model for fluid dynamics with continuous velocities is generalized to model fluids with excluded volume effects. This is achieved through the u…

Evolutionary route to diploidy and sex
Erkan Tuzel, Volkan Sevim, Ayse Erzan
Using a bit-string model of evolution, we find a successful route to diploidy and sex in simple organisms. Allowing the sexually reproducing diploid individuals to also perform mit…

Dissipative Dynamics and the Statistics of Energy States of a Hookean Model for Protein Folding
Erkan Tuzel, Ayse Erzan
A generic model of a random polypeptide chain, with discrete torsional degrees of freedom and Hookean springs connecting pairs of hydrophobic residues, reproduces the energy probab…
