Ripples in hexagonal lattices of atoms coupled to Glauber spins
M Ruiz-Garcia, L L Bonilla, A Prados
A system of atoms connected by harmonic springs to their nearest neighbors on a lattice is coupled to Ising spins that are in contact with a thermal bath and evolve under Glauber d…
Theory of force-extension curve for modular proteins and DNA hairpins
L. L. Bonilla, A. Carpio, A. Prados
We study a model describing the force-extension curves of modular proteins, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules made out of several single units or modules. At a mesoscopic level…
Protein unfolding and refolding as transitions through virtual states
L. L. Bonilla, A. Carpio, A. Prados
Single-molecule atomic force spectroscopy probes elastic properties of titin, ubiquitin and other relevant proteins. We explain bioprotein folding dynamics under both length- and f…
Sawtooth patterns in biomolecules force-extension curves: an equilibrium-statistical-mechanics theory
A. Prados, A. Carpio, L. L. Bonilla
We analyze the force-extension curve for a general class of systems, which are described at the mesoscopic level by a free energy depending on the extension of its components. Simi…
Ripples in a graphene membrane coupled to Glauber spins
L. L. Bonilla, A. Carpio
We propose a theory of ripples in suspended graphene sheets based on two-dimensional elasticity equations that are made discrete on the honeycomb lattice and then periodized. At ea…
Model of ripples in graphene
L. L. Bonilla, A. Carpio
We propose a model of ripples in suspended graphene sheets based on plate equations that are made discrete with the periodicity of the honeycomb lattice and then periodized. In add…
