Prototyping Bio - Nanorobots Using Molecular Dynamic Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a molecular mechanics study using a molecular dynamics software (NAMD) coupled to virtual reality techniques for intuitive bio-nanorobotic prototyping. Using molecular dynamic simulations the operator can design, characterize and prototype the behavior of bio-nanorobotic components and structures. The main novelty of the proposed simulations is based on the characterization of stiffness performances of passive joints-based deca-alanine protein molecule and active joints-based viral protein motor (VPL) in their native environment. Their use as elementary bio-nanorobotic components are also simulated and the results discussed.

متن کاملNanorobots, NEMS, and Nanoassembly - Proceedings of the IEEE
Nanorobotics encompasses the design, fabrication, and programming of robots with overall dimensions below a few micrometers, and the programmable assembly of nanoscale objects. Nanorobots are quintessential nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) and raise all the important issues that must be addressed in NEMS design: sensing, actuation, control, communications, power, and interfacing across spat...
متن کاملHybrid Architecture For Simulation Of Blood Flow With Foreign Bodies
The new methods of diagnosis are often more sensitive and speed up its process allowing for a more effective treatment. Yet they need to be carefully tested before they can be used in practice. The paper concerns the problems of developing nanorobots, which would circulate in the bloodstream of the human body gathering information about its condition. Simulation of these new ways of diagnosis i...
متن کاملNanorobotics Design, Assembly, and Role in Medicine
Two main areas have been identified in nanorobotics. The first is the design and simulation of nanodevices, based largely on aspects of macro-scale robots including power, communication, and navigation. The second, which has had more work done in it, involves the assembly of nanorobots through self-assembly or manipulation at the nanoscale. Techniques for this include the already proven use of ...
