Brownian Dynamics Simulations of Single-File Motion Through Nanochannels [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
Algorithm is constructed which models single-file motion of particles interacting with each other and with the surroundings. As an example, we present the results of Brownian Dynamics simulations of the motion of cations moving through a short very narrow channel containing a device called ``gate'', which may open and close the channel.

I like the way you move: how animate motion affects visual attention in early human infancy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
The ability to detect animates (as compared with inanimates) rapidly is advantageous for human survival. Due to its relevance, not only the adult human brain has evolved specific neural mechanisms to discriminate animates, but it has been proposed that ...

Points and Stripes: A Novel Technique for Masking Biological Motion Point-Light Stimuli

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Human articulated motion can be readily recognized robustly even from impoverished so-called point-light displays. Such sequence information is processed by separate visual processing channels recruiting different stages at low and intermediate levels of

Seeing life in the teeming world: animacy perception in arthropods

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology
The term “animacy perception” describes the ability of animals to detect cues that indicate whether a particular object in the environment is alive or not.

Metachronal Motion of Biological and Artificial Cilia

open access: yesBiomimetics
Cilia are slender, hair-like cell protrusions that are present ubiquitously in the natural world. They perform essential functions, such as generating fluid flow, propulsion, and feeding, in organisms ranging from protozoa to the human body. The coordinated beating of cilia, which results in wavelike motions known as metachrony, has fascinated ...

Visual event-related potentials to biological motion stimuli in autism spectrum disorders.

open access: yesSocial Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, 2014
Atypical visual processing of biological motion contributes to social impairments in autism spectrum disorders (ASD). However, the exact temporal sequence of deficits of cortical biological motion processing in ASD has not been studied to date.

Boltzmann and hydrodynamic description for self-propelled particles

open access: yes, 2006
We study analytically the emergence of spontaneous collective motion within large bidimensional groups of self-propelled particles with noisy local interactions, a schematic model for assemblies of biological organisms.

Motion as a source of environmental information: a fresh view on biological motion computation by insect brains

open access: yesFront. Neural Circuits, 2014
Despite their miniature brains insects, such as flies, bees and wasps, are able to navigate by highly erobatic flight maneuvers in cluttered environments.
