Giant enhancement of hydrodynamically enforced entropic trapping in thin channels

S. Martens, A. V. Straube, G. Schmid +2

Using our generalized Fick-Jacobs approach [Martens et al., PRL 110, 010601 (2013); Martens et al., Eur. Phys. J. Spec. Topics 222, 2453-2463 (2013)] and extensive Brownian dynamic…

How entropy and hydrodynamics cooperate in rectifying particle transport

S. Martens, G. Schmid, A. V. Straube +2

Using the analytical Fick-Jacobs approximation formalism and extensive Brownian dynamics simulations we study particle transport through two-dimensional periodic channels with tria…

Hydrodynamically enforced entropic trapping of Brownian particles

S. Martens, A. V. Straube, G. Schmid +2

We study the transport of Brownian particles through a corrugated channel caused by a force field containing curl-free (scalar potential) and divergence-free (vector potential) par…

Impact of inertia on biased Brownian transport in confined geometries

Steffen Martens, Igor M. Sokolov, Lutz Schimansky-Geier

We consider the impact of inertia on biased Brownian motion of point particles in a two-dimensional channel with sinusoidally varying width. If the time scales of the problem separ…

Biased Brownian motion in extreme corrugated tubes

Steffen Martens, Gerhard Schmid, Lutz Schimansky-Geier +1

Biased Brownian motion of point-size particles in a three-dimensional tube with smoothly varying cross-section is investigated. In the fashion of our recent work [Martens et al., P…
