A new sequential importance sampling method and its application to the two-dimensional hydrophobic–hydrophilic model
نویسندگان
چکیده
The sequential importance sampling method and its various modifications have been developed intensively and used effectively in diverse research areas ranging from polymer simulation to signal processing and statistical inference. We propose a new variant of the method, sequential importance sampling with pilot-exploration resampling ~SISPER!, and demonstrate its successful application in folding polypeptide chains described by a two-dimensional hydrophobic-hydrophilic ~HP! lattice model. We show by numerical results that SISPER outperformed several existing approaches, e.g., a genetic algorithm, the pruned-enriched Rosenbluth method, and the evolutionary Monte Carlo, in finding the ground folding states of 2D square-lattice HP sequences. In a few difficult cases, the new method can find the ground states without using any prior structural information on the chain. We also discuss the potential applications of SISPER in more general problems. © 2002 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1494415#

In the first part of the present study, a two dimensional half-corrugated channel flow is simulated at Reynolds number of 104, in no-slip condition (hydrophilic surfaces( using various low Reynolds turbulence models as well as standard k-ε model; and an appropriate turbulence model (k-ω 1998 model( is proposed. Then, in order to evaluate the proposed solution method...

There is no other naturally occurring defense agent against cancer that has a stronger effectthan paclitaxel, commonly known under the brand name of Taxol®. The major drawback for themore widespread use of paclitaxel and its precious precursor, 10-deacetylbaccatin III (10-DABIII), is that they require large-scale extraction from different parts of yew trees (Taxus species),cell cultures, taxane...

متن کاملThe Impact of Wettability on Effective Properties of Cathode Catalyst Layer in a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell
The produced liquid water in cathode catalyst layer (CCL) has significant effect on the operation of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). To investigate this effect, the transport of oxygen in CCL in the presence of immiscible liquid water is studied applying a two-dimensional pore scale model. The CCL was reconstructed as an agglomerated system. To explore the wettability effects, diffe...
