A continuum model for the dynamics of the phase transition from slow-wave sleep to REM sleep

open access: yes, 2010
Previous studies have shown that activated cortical states (awake and rapid eye-movement (REM) sleep), are associated with increased cholinergic input into the cerebral cortex.

Superadiabatic transitions in quantum molecular dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We study the dynamics of a molecule’s nuclear wave function near an avoided crossing of two electronic energy levels for one nuclear degree of freedom.

Interplay Between Coastal Elevation and Wave Height Controls the Occurrence of Coastal Boulder Deposits in the Aran Islands, Ireland

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Coastal boulder deposits (CBD) are wave-emplaced supratidal accumulations that record extreme inundation on rocky coasts. They are poorly understood but are of growing importance as we seek to better understand the extremes of wave power on coastlines ...

DYNAMICS OF FILAMENTS OF SCROLL WAVES [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This has been written as a chapter for "Engineering Chemical Complexity II", and as such does not have an abstract.

Travelling Waves in Plankton Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena, 2013
A recently proposed model for the investigation of diffusivity in planktonic systems containing toxin-producing phytoplanktons is here reconsidered. We show the existence of planktonic travelling waves. Numerical simulations validate the analytical findings, to elucidate the sensitivity of the results in dependence of the diffusion coefficients.

Epigenetic blind spots – the role of DNA methylation dynamics in stem cell‐based models of embryogenesis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Experimental measurement of focused wave group and solitary wave overtopping

open access: yes, 2011
Prediction of individual wave overtopping events is important in assessing danger to life and property, but data are sparse and hydrodynamic understanding is lacking.

Performance improvement of a Wells turbine through an automated optimization technique

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management: X, 2022
The present article reports optimization of the performance of a Wells turbine, which is an axial turbine utilized for wave energy conversion, through a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) based automated optimization technique.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Wave Propagation in Granular Materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Wave propagation is a fundamental property of all physical systems. The wave speed is directly related to the compressibility of the system and determines the rate at which local disturbances are propagated into the bulk of the material.
