Osmosis and thermodynamics explained by solute blocking [PDF]
Eur. Biophys. J. 46 (2017) 59-64, 2016 A solute-blocking model is presented that provides a kinetic explanation of osmosis and ideal solution thermodynamics. It validates a diffusive model of osmosis that is distinct from the traditional convective flow model of osmosis. Osmotic equilibrium occurs when the fraction of water molecules in solution matches the fraction of pure water molecules ...

OSMOSIS: Enabling Multi-Tenancy in Datacenter SmartNICs [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Multi-tenancy is essential for unleashing SmartNIC's potential in datacenters. Our systematic analysis in this work shows that existing on-path SmartNICs have resource multiplexing limitations. For example, existing solutions lack multi-tenancy capabilities such as performance isolation and QoS provisioning for compute and IO resources.

Osmotic and diffusio-osmotic flow generation at high solute concentration. I. Mechanical approaches [PDF]
The Journal of Chemical Physics 146, 194701 (2017), 2017 In this paper, we explore various forms of osmotic transport in the regime of high solute concentration. We consider both the osmosis across membranes and diffusio-osmosis at solid interfaces, driven by solute concentration gradients. We follow a mechanical point of view of osmotic transport, which allows us to gain much insight into the local ...

Journal of General Physiology, 1929 If only one substance S passes through a membrane, the nature of this membrane is not of importance with respect to the direction of the diffusion; this is namely determined only by the O.S.A. of the two liquids. If, however, more substances pass through a membrane, the nature of this membrane is of great importance.

How Cells Can Control Their Size by Pumping Ions
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2017 The ability of all cells to set and regulate their size is a fundamental aspect of cellular physiology. It has been known for sometime but not widely so, that size stability in animal cells is dependent upon the operation of the sodium pump, through the ...

Kidney International, 1982 Osmosis is a phenomenon of paramount significance for the transport of water and solutes through biological membranes. It accounts for fluid transport out of the kidney tubules and the gastrointestinal tract, into capillaries, and across cell membranes.
