A Brownian Dynamics Model of Kinesin in Three Dimensions Incorporating the Force-Extension Profile of the Coiled-Coil Cargo Tether
P. J. Atzberger, C. S. Peskin
The Kinesin family of motor proteins are involved in a variety of cellular processes that transport materials and generate force. With recent advances in experimental techniques, s…
A Stochastic Immersed Boundary Method for Fluid-Structure Dynamics at Microscopic Length Scales
P. J. Atzberger, P. R. Kramer, C. S. Peskin
In this work it is shown how the immersed boundary method of (Peskin2002) for modeling flexible structures immersed in a fluid can be extended to include thermal fluctuations. A st…
Theoretical Framework for Microscopic Osmotic Phenomena
P. J. Atzberger, P. R. Kramer
The basic ingredients of osmotic pressure are a solvent fluid with a soluble molecular species which is restricted to a chamber by a boundary which is permeable to the solvent flui…
Stochastic Eulerian-Lagrangian Methods for Fluid-Structure Interactions with Thermal Fluctuations and Shear Boundary Conditions
P. J. Atzberger
A computational approach is introduced for the study of the rheological properties of complex fluids and soft materials. The approach allows for a consistent treatment of microstru…
Hybrid Elastic/Discrete-Particle Approach to Biomembrane Dynamics with Application to the Mobility of Curved Integral Membrane Proteins
Ali Naji, Paul J. Atzberger, Frank L. H. Brown
We introduce a simulation strategy to consistently couple continuum biomembrane dynamics to the motion of discrete biological macromolecules residing within or on the membrane. The…
