Ionic transport in conventional ionic solids is generally considered to proceed via independent diffusion events or "hops." This assumption leads to well-known Arrhenius expressions for transport coefficients, and is equivalent to assuming diffusion is a Poisson process. Using molecular dynamics simulations of the low-temperature B1, B3, and B4 AgI polymorphs, we have compared rates of ion hopp...

A major mystery of glass-forming liquids is the non-Arrhenius temperature-dependence of the average relaxation time. This paper brie ̄y reviews the classical phenomenological models for non-Arrhenius behavior ± the free volume model and the entropy model ± and critiques against these models. We then discuss a recently proposed model according to which the activation energy of the average relaxat...

Molecular dynamics simulations have been used extensively to model the folding and unfolding of proteins. The rates of folding and unfolding should follow the Arrhenius equation over a limited range of temperatures. This study shows that molecular dynamic simulations of the unfolding of crambin between 500K and 560K do follow the Arrhenius equation. They also show that while there is a large am...

We introduce a coarse-grained model for atomic glass formers. Its elements are physically motivated local microscopic dynamical rules parameterized by observables. Results of the model are established and used to interpret the measured behaviors of supercooled fluids approaching glass transitions. The model predicts the presence of a crossover from hierarchical super-Arrhenius dynamics at short...

1. The effect of temperature on the reaction time of Mya to light is mainly confined to the latent period. The sensitization period, representing a photochemical process, is changed comparatively little. 2. The relation between the latent period and the temperature is adequately expressed by the Arrhenius equation, for temperatures below 21 degrees C. Above this temperature, the latent period b...

A nonlinear mathematical model was developed and experimentally validated to investigate the effects of changes in optical properties during interstitial laser photocoagulation (ILP). The effects of dynamic optical properties were calculated using the Arrhenius damage model, resulting in a nonlinear optothermal response. This response was experimentally validated by measuring the temperature ri...

We propose a new approach for force field optimizations which aims at reproducing dynamics characteristics using biomolecular MD simulations, in addition to improved prediction of motionally averaged structural properties available from experiment. As the source of experimental data for dynamics fittings, we use (13) C NMR spin-lattice relaxation times T1 of backbone and sidechain carbons, whic...

The dielectric spectra of most simple liquids are characterized by two relaxation processes: (i) the alpha-process, an intense, broad non-Debye relaxation with a non-Arrhenius temperature dependence and (ii) a beta process, evident mainly below the glass transition and having nearly Arrhenius temperature behavior. However, the dielectric spectra of monoalcohols show three processes: two that re...

The basic theorem of isokinetic relationships is formulated as “if there exists a linear correlation “structure?properties” at two temperatures, the point their intersection will be common for same other until Arrhenius law violated”. valid in various regions thermally activated processes, which only one parameter changes. A detailed examination consequences this showed that it easy to formulat...

This study has modeled the rheological behavior of thermosonic extracted pink-fleshed guava, pink-fleshed pomelo, and soursop juice concentrates at different concentrations and temperatures. The effects of concentration on consistency coefficient (K) and flow behavior index (n) of the fruit juice concentrates was modeled using a master curve which utilized the concentration-temperature shifting...
