چکیده

The coupled in-plane diffusion dynamics between point-particles embedded in stacked fluid membranes is investigated. We calculate the contributions to the coupling longitudinal and transverse diffusion coefficients due to particle motion within the different as well as the same membranes. The stacked geometry leads to a hydrodynamic coupling between the two membranes.

Two-component fluid membranes near repulsive walls: Linearized hydrodynamics of equilibrium and nonequilibrium states.

We study the linearized hydrodynamics of a two-component fluid membrane near a repulsive wall, using a model that incorporates curvature-concentration coupling as well as hydrodynamic interactions. This model is a simplified version of a recently proposed one [J.-B. Manneville et al., Phys. Rev. E 64, 021908 (2001)] for nonequilibrium force centers embedded in fluid membranes, such as light-act...

Hydrodynamic coupling of particle inclusions embedded in curved lipid bilayer membranes.

We develop theory and computational methods to investigate particle inclusions embedded within curved lipid bilayer membranes. We consider the case of spherical lipid vesicles where inclusion particles are coupled through (i) intramembrane hydrodynamics, (ii) traction stresses with the external and trapped solvent fluid, and (iii) intermonolayer slip between the two leaflets of the bilayer. We ...

Viscoelastic Effect on Hydrodynamic Relaxation in Poly- mer Solutions

– The viscoelastic effect on the hydrodynamic relaxation in semi-dilute polymer solutions is investigated. From the linearized two-fluid model equations we predict that the dynamical asymmetry coupling between the velocity fluctuations and the viscoelastic stress influences on the hydrodynamic relaxation process, resulting in a wave number dependent shear viscosity. Previously, Doi and Onuki [1...

Ciliary metachronal wave propagation on the compliant surface of Paramecium cells.

Ciliary movements in protozoa exhibit metachronal wave-like coordination, in which a constant phase difference is maintained between adjacent cilia. It is at present generally thought that metachronal waves require hydrodynamic coupling between adjacent cilia and the extracellular fluid. To test this hypothesis, we aspirated a Paramecium cell using a micropipette which completely sealed the sur...

A two-dimensional cochlear fluid model based on conformal mapping.

Using conformal mapping, fluid motion inside the cochlear duct is derived from fluid motion in an infinite half plane. The cochlear duct is represented by a two-dimensional half-open box. Motion of the cochlear fluid creates a force acting on the cochlear partition, modeled by damped oscillators. The resulting equation is one-dimensional, more realistic, and can be handled more easily than exis...
