Statistical mechanics for metabolic networks during steady-state growth
Which properties of metabolic networks can be derived solely from stoichiometric information about the network’s constituent reactions? Predictive results have been obtained by Flux Balance Analysis (FBA), by postulating that cells set metabolic fluxes within the allowed stoichiometry so as to maximize their growth. Here, we generalize this framework to single cell level using maximum entropy m...
متن کاملStatistical mechanics of non-hamiltonian systems: Traffic flow
Statistical mechanics of a small system of cars on a single-lane road is developed. The system is not characterized by a Hamiltonian but by a conditional probability of a velocity of a car for the given velocity and distance of the car ahead. Distribution of car velocities for various densities of a group of cars are derived as well as probabilities of density fluctuations of the group for diff...
متن کاملSteady-state properties of traffic flows
The role of the passing mechanism in traffic flows is examined. Specifically, we consider passing rates that are proportional to the difference between the velocities of the passing car and the passed car. From a Boltzmann equation approach, steady-state properties of the flow such as the flux, average cluster size, and velocity distributions are found analytically. We show that a single dimens...
متن کاملSteady-state solutions of hydrodynamic traffic models.
We investigate steady-state solutions of hydrodynamic traffic models in the absence of any intrinsic inhomogeneity on roads such as on-ramps. It is shown that typical hydrodynamic models possess seven different types of inhomogeneous steady-state solutions. The seven solutions include those that have been reported previously only for microscopic models. The characteristic properties of wide jam...
متن کاملPseudo Steady State Gas Flow in Tight Reservoir under Dual Mechanism Flow
Gas reservoirs with low permeability (k<0.1 mD) are among the unconventional reservoirs and are commonly termed as "Tight Gas Reservoirs". In conventional gas reservoirs that have high permeability, the flow of gas is basically controlled by the reservoir permeability and it is calculated using the Darcy equation. In these reservoirs, gas flow due to gas diffusion is ignored compared to Dar...
