Today the most commonly used system architectures in data processing can be divided into three categories, general purpose processors, application specific architectures and reconfigurable architectures. Application specific architectures... more
Theoretical studies of the molecular mechanisms responsible for the formation and stability of protein complexes have gained importance due to their practical applications in the understanding of the molecular basis of several diseases,... more
This paper proposes a new stochastic model of traffic dynamics in La-grangian coordinates. The source of uncertainty is heterogeneity in driving behavior , captured using driver-specific speed-spacing relations, i.e., parametric... more
Scientists and philosophers frequently speak about levels of description, levels of explanation, and ontological levels. In this paper, I propose a unified framework for modelling levels. I give a general definition of a system of levels... more
Ceramides are lipids that are involved in numerous biologically important structures (e.g. the stratum corneum and ceramide-rich platforms) and processes (e.g. signal transduction and membrane fusion), but their behavior is not fully... more
A 5 year old male child reported to the department of Pediatrics with large head ,facial puffiness,enlarged abdomen and corneal opacity. Examination revealed that the child had stunted growth and a short neck. Shape of the head was... more
The first simulation study of the crystallisation of a binary mixture of triglycerides using molecular dynamics simulations is reported. Coarse-grained models of tristearin (SSS) and tripalmitin (PPP) molecules have been considered. The... more
Exposure of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) during electron beam lithography (EBL) produces small polymer fragments that dissolve rapidly during the development process. The resist dissolution behavior varies greatly depending on the nature... more
Sedimentary successions exposed at basin margins as a result of late-stage inversion, uplift and erosion usually represent only a limited portion of the entire basin fill; thus, they are highly incomplete records of basin evolution. Small... more
Spider silk is a fascinating material combining mechanical properties such as maximum strength and high toughness comparable or better than man-made materials, with biocompatible degradability characteristics. Experimental measurements... more
Coarse-grained (CG) models have proven to be very effective tools in the study of phenomena or systems involving large time- and length-scales. By decreasing the degrees of freedom in the system and using softer interactions than seen in... more
Abstract: At the end of 2017, a new version of CG Martini will be released: Martini 3.0. Before it is released, it needs to be tested extensively. During this bachelor-research, a Martini-model of Hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HPHC) was... more
Synchronization cluster analysis is an approach to the detection of underlying structures in data sets of multivariate time series, starting from a matrix R of bivariate synchronization indices. A previous method utilized the eigenvectors... more
Questions regarding population stability among animals and plants are fundamental to population ecology, yet this has not been a topic studied by archeologists focusing on prehistoric human populations. This is an important knowledge gap.... more
The main mechanisms that control the organization of multicellular tissues are still largely open. A commonly used tool to study basic control mechanisms are in vitro experiments in which the growth conditions can be widely varied.... more

A powerful way to deal with a complex system is to build a coarse-grained model capable of catching its main physical features, while being computationally affordable. Inevitably, such coarse-grained models introduce a set of... more

The traditional computational modeling of protein structure, dynamics, and interactions remains difficult for many protein systems. It is mostly due to the size of protein conformational spaces and required simulation time scales that are... more
Molecular modeling of phospholipids on many scales has progressed significantly over the last years. Here we review several membrane models on intermediate to large length scales restricting ourselves to particle based coarse-grained... more

Aggregation phenomena in colloidal systems with and without shear flow studied with mesoscale Langevin Dynamics method is a primary focus of the current study. Applicability of mesoscale methods to the non-equilibrium time evolving... more
ABSTRACT When systems of reacting solid or liquid particles are explicitly modeled on a computational mesh, a wide distribution of initial particle sizes can lead to undesirably large numbers of mesh points. A coarse graining method is... more
