Anomalous output characteristics are observed in hydrodynamic simulations of partially depleted SOI MOSFETs. The effect that the drain current reaches a maximum and then decreases is peculiar to the hydrodynamic transport model. It is not observed in drift-diffusion simulations and its occurance in measurements is questionable. An explanation of the cause of this effect is given and a solution ...

We study collisions between two strongly interacting atomic Fermi gas clouds. We observe exotic nonlinear hydrodynamic behavior, distinguished by the formation of a very sharp and stable density peak as the clouds collide and subsequent evolution into a boxlike shape. We model the nonlinear dynamics of these collisions by using quasi-1D hydrodynamic equations. Our simulations of the time-depend...

Hydrodynamic interactions exert a critical effect on the dynamics of macromolecules. As the concentration of macromolecules increases, by analogy to the behavior of semidilute polymer solutions or the flow in porous media, one might expect hydrodynamic screening to occur. Hydrodynamic screening would have implications both for the understanding of macromolecular dynamics as well as practical im...

BACKGROUND Hydrodynamic injection is an effective method for DNA delivery in mouse liver and is being translated to larger animals for possible clinical use. Similarly, phiC31 integrase has proven effective in mediating long-term gene therapy in mice when delivered by hydrodynamic injection and is being considered for clinical gene therapy applications. However, chromosomal aberrations have bee...

A short review of analytical and numerical results, obtained for collective dynamics in liquid metals and alloys within a theoretical approach of Generalized Collective Modes (GCM) is presented. The GCM approach permits to represent dynamic structure factors in wide ranges of wave numbers and frequencies as a sum of contributions from hydrodynamic and non-hydrodynamic processes. The origin of c...

An introduction to the hydrodynamic model for semiconductor devices is presented. Special attention is paid to classifying the hydrodynamic PDE’s and analyzing their nonlinear wave structure. Numerical simulations of the ballistic diode using the hydrodynamic device model are presented, as an illustrative elliptic problem. The importance of nonlinear block iterative methods is emphasized. Argum...

The influence of hydrodynamic forces on eukaryotic flagella synchronization is investigated by triggering phase locking between a controlled external flow and the flagella of C. reinhardtii. Hydrodynamic forces required for synchronization are over an order of magnitude larger than hydrodynamic forces experienced in physiological conditions. Our results suggest that synchronization is due inste...
