Voltage Rectification by a SQUID Ratchet.

We argue that the phase across an asymmetric dc SQUID threaded by a magnetic flux can experience an effective ratchet (periodic and asymmetric) potential. Under an external ac current, a rocking ratchet mechanism operates whereby one sign of the time derivative of the phase is favored. We show that there exists a range of parameters in which a fixed sign (and, in a narrower range, even a fixed ...

Kinetic Modelling of Hydraulic Resistance in Colloidal System Ultrafltration: Effect of Physiochemical and Hydrodynamic Parameters

In this work, different kinetic patterns (homographic, exponential-linear and exponential) of hydraulic resistance in ultrafltration process of a colloidal system have been investigated. Exponential kinetic model, as the best approach, was employed for description of dynamic hydraulic resistance of skim milk ultrafltration at different feed flow rates (FR) (10, 30 and 46 L...

Resonant rectification of fluctuations in a Brownian ratchet

Resonant activation, rectification of fluctuations, and current reversal, are investigated numerically in an asymmetric periodic potential. The results are compared to recent predictions based on the theory of the logarithmic susceptibility. Possible applications are discussed. The phenomenon of resonant activation – a field-induced resonant reduction of the lifetime of a metastable state – was...

Hydrodynamic synchronization of colloidal oscillators.

Two colloidal spheres are maintained in oscillation by switching the position of an optical trap when a sphere reaches a limit position, leading to oscillations that are bounded in amplitude but free in phase and period. The interaction between the oscillators is only through the hydrodynamic flow induced by their motion. We prove that in the absence of stochastic noise the antiphase dynamical ...
