Molecular communication is a promising technique for microchannel systems. In this paper, various microchannel molecular communication schemes are simulated and analyzed using information theory, including molecular motors and Brownian motion with drift. Results suggest Brownian motion with drift can deliver excellent performance, depending on the drift velocity.

We examined three united atom models in light of their description of polyolefin dynamics and investigated the relative influence of various potentials on the resulting dynamics. Results were compared with a collection of experimental data on polyethylene, poly(ethylene-alt-propylene), polypropylene, and head-to-head polypropylene, including quasielastic neutron scattering measurements that we ...

Recently, in a beautiful set of experiments, it has been shown that a Ncd mutant, NK11, which lacks directionality in its individual motion, was able to exhibit a new kind of directed motion in motility assays (Endow, S. A. & Higuchi, H. (2000) Nature (London) 406, 913-916): the filaments keep a given velocity for a while and then suddenly move in the opposite direction with similar velocity. W...
