چکیده
In this paper, we model a microtubule based on its dimer resolution structure. First, the fundamental structural components were studied and then electrostatic potential function for a single monomer was calculated. Subsequently, the potential function inside a single monomer due to a ring of dimers was obtained. Considering the potential due to protofilament-protofilament interaction with a monomer in a B crystal structure of a microtubule, we obtain a double well potential wall. Quantum mechanically the ions can pass through this wall because of the Tunnelling effect. We solve the time independent Schrodinger Equation, calculate the transmission efficiency of ion flow and use the latter in the calculation of ion current density.

As a novel strategy, Quantum-behaved particles use uncertainty law and a distinct formulation obtained from solving the time-independent Schrodinger differential equation in the delta-potential-well function to update the solution candidates’ positions. In this case, the local attractors as potential solutions between the best solution and the others are introduced to explore the solution space...

A meshless numerical technique is proposed for solving the generalized variable coefficient Schrodinger equation and Schrodinger-Boussinesq system with electromagnetic fields. The employed meshless technique is based on a generalized smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) approach. The spatial direction has been discretized with the generalized SPH technique. Thus, we obtain a system of ordinary...

متن کاملElzaki transform method for finding solutions to two-dimensional elasticity problems in polar coordinates formulated using Airy stress functions
In this paper, the Elzaki transform method is used for solving two-dimensional (2D) elasticity problems in plane polar coordinates. Airy stress function was used to express the stress compatibility equation as a biharmonic equation. Elzaki transform was applied with respect to the radial coordinate to a modified form of the stress compatibility equation, and the biharmonic equation simplified t...
