Influence of Thermodynamics and Diffusion on Reaction Mechanisms during Gas/solid Reactions
The direct link between microstructure and material properties is the core principle underpinning modern material science and engineering. Phase transformations in solids and solidification of melts have been extensively studied to the point where the key elementary processes, process steps and process variables are well understood. Less well investigated and less well understood are the change...
متن کاملComputational methods for diffusion-influenced biochemical reactions
MOTIVATION We compare stochastic computational methods accounting for space and discrete nature of reactants in biochemical systems. Implementations based on Brownian dynamics (BD) and the reaction-diffusion master equation are applied to a simplified gene expression model and to a signal transduction pathway in Escherichia coli. RESULTS In the regime where the number of molecules is small an...
متن کاملReaction-diffusion master equation, diffusion-limited reactions, and singular potentials.
To model biochemical systems in which both noise in the chemical reaction process and spatial movement of molecules is important, both the reaction-diffusion master equation (RDME) and Smoluchowski diffusion-limited reaction (SDLR) partial differential equation (PDE) models have been used. In previous work we showed that the solution to the RDME may be interpreted as an asymptotic approximation...
متن کاملBalanced Biochemical Reactions: A New Approach to Unify Chemical and Biochemical Thermodynamics
A novel procedure is presented which, by balancing elements and electric charge of biochemical reactions which occur at constant pH and pMg, allows assessing the thermodynamics properties of reaction Δ(r)G'⁰, Δ(r)H'⁰, Δ(r)S'⁰ and the change in binding of hydrogen and magnesium ions of these reactions. This procedure of general applicability avoids the complex calculations required by the use of...
متن کاملMesoscopic non-equilibrium thermodynamics of non-isothermal reaction-diffusion.
We show how the law of mass action can be derived from a thermodynamic basis, in the presence of temperature gradients, chemical potential gradients and hydrodynamic flow. The solution gives the law of mass action for the forward and the reverse contributions to the net chemical reaction. In addition we derive the fluctuation-dissipation theorem for the fluctuating contributions to the reaction...
