Optimal reaction time for surface-mediated diffusion.
We present an exact calculation of the mean first-passage time to a small target on the surface of a 2D or 3D spherical domain, for a molecule performing surface-mediated diffusion. This minimal model of interfacial reactions, which explicitly takes into account the combination of surface and bulk diffusion, shows the importance of correlations induced by the coupling of the switching dynamics ...
متن کاملOptimal results for a time-fractional inverse diffusion problem under the Hölder type source condition
In the present paper we consider a time-fractional inverse diffusion problem, where data is given at $x=1$ and the solution is required in the interval $0
متن کاملTime-delayed reaction-diffusion fronts.
A time-delayed second-order approximation for the front speed in reaction-dispersion systems was obtained by Fort and Méndez [Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 867 (1999)]. Here we show that taking proper care of the effect of the time delay on the reactive process yields a different evolution equation and, therefore, an alternate equation for the front speed. We apply the new equation to the Neolithic tran...
متن کاملOptimal Stretching in Advection-Reaction-Diffusion Systems.
We investigate growth of the excitable Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction in chaotic, time-varying flows. In slow flows, reacted regions tend to lie near vortex edges, whereas fast flows restrict reacted regions to vortex cores. We show that reacted regions travel toward vortex centers faster as flow speed increases, but nonreactive scalars do not. For either slow or fast flows, reaction is promoted...
متن کاملA Finite Element Method for Volume-surface Reaction-diffusion Systems
We consider the numerical simulation of coupled volume-surface reaction-diffusion systems having a detailed balance equilibrium. Based on the conservation of mass, an appropriate quadratic entropy functional is identified and an entropy-entropy dissipation inequality is proven. This allows us to show exponential convergence of solutions to equilibrium by the entropy method. We then investigate ...
