Unraveling Internal Friction in a Coarse-Grained Protein Model
Carlos Monago, J. A. de la Torre, Rafael Delgado-Buscalioni +1
Understanding the dynamic behavior of complex biomolecules requires simplified models that not only make computations feasible but also reveal fundamental mechanisms. Coarse-graini…
Stochastic Dissipative Euler's equations for a free body
J. A. de la Torre, J. Sánchez-Rodríguez, Pep Español
Intrinsic thermal fluctuations within a real solid challenge the rigid body assumption that is central to Euler's equations for the motion of a free body. Recently, we have introdu…
Internal dissipation in the tennis racket effect
J. A. de la Torre, Pep Español
The phenomenon known as the tennis racket effect is observed when a rigid body experiences unstable rotation around its intermediate axis. In free space, this leads to the Dzhanibe…
The role of thermal fluctuations in the motion of a free body
Pep Español, Mark Thachuk, J. A. de la Torre
The motion of a rigid body is described in Classical Mechanics with the venerable Euler's equations which are based on the assumption that the relative distances among the constitu…
Perspective: Dissipative Particle Dynamics
Pep Español, Patrick B Warren
Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) belongs to a class of models and computational algorithms developed to address mesoscale problems in complex fluids and soft matter in general.…
Assignment of fields from particles to mesh
Daniel Duque, Pep Español
In Computational Fluid Dynamics there have been many attempts to combine the power of a fixed mesh on which to carry out spatial calculations with that of a set of particles that m…
