Statistical Mechanics of Developable Ribbons

, 2010
We investigate the statistical mechanics of long developable ribbons of finite width and very small thickness. The constraint of isometric deformations in these ribbon-like structures that follows from the geometric separation of scales introduces a ...

Freshwater Ribbon Worms (Nemertea) from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park [PDF]

Journal of the North Carolina Academy of Science, 2014
Abstract Freshwater ribbon worms collected in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park from 9 June 2007 until 28 September 2010 are reported. All six specimens are identified as genus Prostoma. Species identification is not concluded and also no conclusion is made whether any of the specimens are of a new or undescribed species.

Structural and Chemical Engineering of Sub‐Nanochannel Membranes Toward Ion Selectivity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes recent advances in structural and chemical engineering of sub‐nanochannels for ion selectivity. We first introduce fundamental ion transport mechanisms within sub‐nanochannels, followed by strategies to tune pore size, geometry, and surface functionalities, categorized into charge‐based, ion‐recognition, hydrophilic bonding, and ...

Getting DNA twist rigidity from single molecule experiments [PDF]

, 2004
We use an elastic rod model with contact to study the extension versus rotation diagrams of single supercoiled DNA molecules. We reproduce quantitatively the supercoiling response of overtwisted DNA and, using experimental data, we get an estimation of ...

Machine Learning‐Assisted Inverse Design of Soft and Multifunctional Hybrid Liquid Metal Composites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A machine learning framework is presented for inverse design of synthesizable multifunctional composites containing both liquid metal and solid inclusions. By integrating physics‐based modeling, data‐driven prediction, and Bayesian optimization, the approach enables intelligent design of experiments to identify optimal compositions and realize these ...

Identification of novel invertebrate TKR gene sequence in intertidal ribbon worms

The FASEB Journal, 2013
The invertebrate ribbon worm, Paranemertes peregrina , serves as a unique model in that it thrives in an environment exposed to drastic fluctuations in salinity during tidal interchange. Its ability to sustain homeostatic integrity is not well understood.
