The rotational mobility of the mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier has been studied solubilized in Triton micelles, reincorporated in phospholipid liposomes, and in mitochondria. Spin-labeled analogues of the noncovalent inhibitors carboxyatractyloside and atractyloside were found to be strongly immobilized when bound to the carrier [Munding, A., Beyer, K., & Klingenberg, M. (1983) Biochemistry 22, 1...

A challenging problem in multi-view structure from motion is the existence of repetitive structures, short baselines, or even moving objects. These can give rise to incorrect geometries that may completely ruin the quality of the reconstruction. Methods solving for all views at once will fail due to the inconsistencies and incremental methods that add one view at a time risk getting stuck in a ...

We introduce an unbiased protocol for performing rotational moves in rigid-body dynamics simulations. This approach-based on the analytic solution for the rotational equations of motion for an orthogonal coordinate system at constant angular velocity-removes deficiencies that have been largely ignored in Brownian dynamics simulations, namely errors for finite rotations that result from applying...

Wind energy is used to rotate a magnetic turbine in order to remove heat from the surface of a photovoltaic (PV) panel. A three-bladed turbine, which rotates with wind energy, has rotational motion underneath the studied PV panel in order to move Magnetic Nano-Particles (MNPs). In addition, effects of the magnetic field strength (B=450-830 mT), rotational velocity of the magnetic turbine (ω), a...

l1is paper describes a method of stabilizing image sequences obtained by a camera carried by a ground vehicle. The motion of the vehicle can usually be regarded as consisting of a desired smooth motion combined with an undesired non-smooth motion that includes impulsive or high­ frequency components. The goal of the stabilization process is to correct the images so that they are approximately t...

We investigated the localized rotational diffusion of the (BH(4))(-) anions in LiBH(4)/LiI solid solutions by means of quasielastic and inelastic neutron scattering. The (BH(4))(-) motions are thermally activated and characterized by activation energies in the order of 40 meV. Typical dwell times between jumps are in the picosecond range at temperatures of about 200 K. The motion is dominated b...

In inertial microfluidics lift forces cause a particle to migrate across streamlines to specific positions in the cross section of a microchannel. We control the rotational motion of a particle and demonstrate that this allows to manipulate the lift-force profile and thereby the particle's equilibrium positions. We perform two-dimensional simulation studies using the method of multi-particle co...

We have investigated the active motion of self-propelled colloids confined at the air-water interface and explored the possibility of enhancing the directional motion of self-propelled Janus colloids by slowing down their rotational diffusion. The two dimensional motion of micron-sized silica-platinum Janus colloids has been experimentally measured by particle tracking video-microscopy at incre...

This paper present a simulation of motion interpretation of trochoid path generated by a single point on a rotating disc translating in the frontoparallel plane of the visual eld. The process involves two mechanisms. First, the extraction of relative motion in a group motion and second the presence an attention mechanism. Speci cally, the paper present neural simulation results for cycloidal mo...
