Modeling Ion-Specific Effects in Polyelectrolyte Brushes: A Modified Poisson-Nernst-Planck Model
William J Ceely, Marina Chugunova, Ali Nadim +1
Polyelectrolyte brushes consist of a set of charged linear macromolecules each tethered at one end to a surface. An example is the glycocalyx which refers to hair-like negatively c…
Mathematical Modeling of Microscale Biology: Ion Pairing, Dielectric Decrement, and Born Energy in Glycosaminoglycan Brushes
William Ceely, Marina Chugunova, Ali Nadim +1
Biological macromolecules including nucleic acids, proteins, and glycosaminoglycans are typically anionic and can span domains of up to hundreds of nanometers and even micron lengt…
Thin liquid film resulting from a distributed source on a vertical wall
Yadong Ruan, Ali Nadim, Marina Chugunova
We examine the dynamics of a thin film formed by a distributed liquid source on a vertical solid wall. The model is derived using the lubrication approximation and includes the eff…
Modeling Coating Flow and Surfactant Dynamics inside the Alveolar Compartment
D. Kang, M. Chugunova, A. Nadim +2
We derive a new model for the coating flow inside the alveolar compartment, taking into account pulmonary surfactant production and recycling by Type 2 cells as well as its degrada…
Marangoni effects on a thin liquid film coating a sphere with axial or radial thermal gradients
Di Kang, Ali Nadim, Marina Chugunova
We study the time evolution of a thin liquid film coating the outer surface of a sphere in the presence of gravity, surface tension and thermal gradients. We derive the fourth-orde…
A p53 Oscillator Model of DNA Break Repair Control
Vijay Chickarmane, Ali Nadim, Animesh Ray +1
The transcription factor p53 is an important regulator of cell fate. Mutations in p53 gene are associated with many cancers. In response to signals such as DNA damage, p53 controls…
