Configurational entropy of self-propelled glass formers

open access: yesPhysica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2023
The configurational entropy is an indispensable tool to describe super-cooled liquids near the glass transition. Its calculation requires the enumeration of the basins in the potential energy landscape and when available, it reveals a direct connection with the relaxation time of the liquid.

Quantification of Solid Solution Strengthening and Internal Stresses through Creep Testing of Ni-Containing Single Crystals at 980 °C

open access: yesMetals, 2021
Various alloy compositions were cast as single crystals in a Bridgman vacuum induction furnace and creep tested at 980 °C: pure Ni, the equiatomic alloys CoCrNi and CrMnFeCoNi (Cantor alloy), single-phase fcc (Ni) solid solution alloys (with the ...

Configurational entropy of hydrogen-disordered ice polymorphs [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2014
The configurational entropy of several H-disordered ice polymorphs is calculated by means of a thermodynamic integration along a path between a totally H-disordered state and one fulfilling the Bernal-Fowler ice rules. A Monte Carlo procedure based on a simple energy model is used, so that the employed thermodynamic path drives the system from high ...

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Enhancing electrocaloric effects of KNN-based ceramics by phase- and ion-configurational entropy regulation based on phase-field modeling

open access: yesnpj Computational Materials
Potassium-sodium niobate (KNN)-based piezoelectric materials demonstrate exceptional electrocaloric (EC) optimization potential owing to phase configurational diversity, though current performance remains constrained by insufficient entropy modulation ...

Information-Entropic for Travelling Solitons in Lorentz and CPT Breaking Systems

open access: yes, 2015
In this work we group three research topics apparently disconnected, namely solitons, Lorentz symmetry breaking and entropy. Following a recent work [Phys. Lett.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Growing length and time scales in glass forming liquids

open access: yes, 2008
We study the growing time scales and length scales associated with dynamical slow down for a realistic glass former, using computer simulations. We perform finite size scaling to evaluate a length scale associated with dynamical heterogeneity which grows

Metabolic flux configuration determination using information entropy

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2020
Constraint-based models use steady-state mass balances to define a solution space of flux configurations, which can be narrowed down by measuring as many fluxes as possible. Due to loops and redundant pathways, this process typically yields multiple alternative solutions.
