Abstract The Gibbs-ensemble simulation technique provides a powerful method to calculate vapor-liquid phase behavior [1]. To evaluate the configurational energy of a system of molecules, commonly used experessions describe the interaction between two molecules. Contributions from higher-body forces are usually implicitly taken into account by adjusting two-body potential parameters to give agreement with experimental data. Explicit expressions for higher-body potentials are not commonly used in simulations [8]. The work by Smit et al. [9] gives the appropriate expressions to evaluate the pressure as well as the chemical potential from a density-dependent two-body potential in an NVT ensemble. In the present work, contributions to the potential from two-body interactions are separated from those due to higher-body interactions; to take higher-body forces into account, a mean-field term, proportional to (density)0.9, is added to the two-body potential. NPT-simulations over a wide range of temperature and density, as well as Gibbs-ensemble simulations, are used to evaluate phase behavior of argon and of methane. The results indicate that a simple mean-field correction to the “true” two-body Kihara potential provides good agreement between experiment and simulation. 相似文献

The coordination of digits during combined force/torque production tasks was further studied using the data presented in
the companion paper [Zatsiorsky et al. Biol Cybern this issue, Part I]. Optimization was performed using as criteria the cubic norms of (a) finger forces, (b) finger forces normalized with respect to the maximal
forces measured in single-finger tasks, (c) finger forces normalized with respect to the maximal forces measured in a four-finger
task, and (d) finger forces normalized with respect to the maximal moments that can be generated by the fingers. All four
criteria failed to predict antagonist finger moments when these moments were not imposed by the task mechanics. Reconstruction of neural commands: The vector of neural commands c was reconstructed from the equation c=W
−1
F, where W is the finger interconnection weight matrix and F is the vector of finger forces. The neural commands ranged from zero (no voluntary force production) to one (maximal voluntary
contraction). For fingers producing moments counteracting the external torque (`agonist' fingers), the intensity of the neural
commands was well correlated with the relative finger forces normalized to the maximal forces in a four-finger task. When
fingers produced moments in the direction of the external torque (`antagonist' fingers), the relative finger forces were always
larger than those expected from the intensity of the corresponding neural commands. The individual finger forces were decomposed
into forces due to `direct' commands and forces induced by enslaving effects. Optimization of the neural commands resulted
in the best correspondence between actual and predicted finger forces. The antagonist moments are, at least in part, due to
enslaving effects: strong commands to agonist fingers also activated antagonist fingers.

Abstract A new ab initio molecular dynamics method based on the full-potential linearized-augmented-plane-wave (LAPW) basis set has been implemented. The LAPW basis set has been successfully employed for systems containing localized electrons such as first row atoms and transition metals. In our implementation of the LAPW-MD scheme, iterative residual minimization algorithm is used to solve the electronic states problem. The atoms are moved according to forces derived from the Hellman–Feynman theorem and incomplete basis set correction terms. The performance of the program is further enhanced by parallelization. We will discuss technical details of the program implementation and present results obtained from this code to the equilibrium structures and vibrational properties of simple diatomic molecules. 相似文献

Abstract Computer simulations using particles are an attractive method to extract microscopic information of flow phenomena [1]. The molecular dynamics (MD) method, in which Newton's equations of motions are integrated, gives the temporal development of the system. In the MD simulation of fluid flows, the computational region is limited to atomistic scales [2]. On the other hand, the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method, in which collisions of particles are made on a probabilistic basis, has a potential of treating a realistic system with a macroscopic scale length retaining the atomistic details. The DSMC method provides an efficient way to integrate the Boltzmann equation from the rarefied gas to the near-continuum region. Bird clarified the validity of the DSMC method in the near-continuum flow region [3]. However, the DSMC method has not been applied to the continuum region and compared with the continuum hydrodynamics. 相似文献

AbstractPurpose/Aim: Allodynia is a common feature of neuropathic pain with few validated clinical evaluation options. We identified a need to estimate the measurement properties of the standardised evaluation procedure for static mechanical allodynia severity popularised by the somatosensory rehabilitation of pain method, known as the rainbow pain scale. This study (www.clinicaltrials.gov. NCT02070367) undertook preliminary investigation of the inter-rater and test-retest reliability of the rainbow pain scale.Methods: Persons with pain in one upper extremity after Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, a peripheral nerve injury or a recent hand fracture were recruited for assessment of static mechanical allodynia threshold using calibrated monofilaments by two raters at baseline, and repeated assessment one week later.Results: Single measures estimates suggested inter-rater reliability was substantial for the rainbow pain scale [intra-class correlation coefficient?=?0.78 (n?=?31), p?<?0.001]. Test-retest reliability was also excellent at with an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.87 [n?=?28, p?<?0.001]. However, confidence intervals suggest the true values could be more moderate, with lower bounds of the 95% confidence interval at 0.60 and 0.74, respectively.Conclusions: This pilot study has generated preliminary support for the inter-rater and test-retest reliability of the rainbow pain scale. Future studies should seek to increase confidence in estimates of reliability, and estimate validity and responsiveness to change in persons with somatosensory disorders. 相似文献

Abstract This paper continues our Monte Carlo simulation study of liquid hydrogen chloride [1]. The importance of non-additive interactions is carefully analyzed. Computed atom pair correlation functions are compared to neutron scattering experiments [2]. A difference algorithm (“Δ—algorithm”) is developed, which makes non-additive Monte Carlo simulations practicable. We also report an implementation of this algorithm on a transputer network, taking advantage of the inherent parallelism of the Δ — algorithm. 相似文献

Abstract The diffusion of molecules sorbed in zeolites is of growing interest for understanding the mechanisms of chemical processes with regard to selectivity and reactivity [1]. MD simulations give insight into physical systems on the molecular level allowing to study and visualize the motion of molecules even beyond the possibilities of experiments [2,3]. Single system parameters can easily be varied to study their influence, also those parameters that are fixed in reality (e.g., the size of particles). We present a cross section of our recent work to illustrate the capabilities of MD: The self diffusion coefficients (D) of a mixture of methane and xenon in silicalite show remarkable deviations from those of the pure species. This is shown and confirmed by PFG NMR experiments [4]. Simulating ethane in zeolite A the mechanism of diffusion has been studied. The effects of rotation on the diffusion lead to cases where D decreases with growing temperature [5]. The independence of self diffusion on lattice vibrations is proven even for zeolites with windows of guest particle size comparing simulations with rigid and vibrating zeolite lattice [6]. 相似文献

The second-order rate constant (k4) for the oxidation of monosubstituted phenols and anilines by lactoperoxidase compound II was examined by Chance's method [B. Chance, Arch. Biochem. Biophys.
71 (1957), 130–136]. When the electronic states of these substrates were calculated by an ab initio molecular orbital method, it was found that the log k4 value correlates well with the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level but not with the net charge or frontier electron density. These results are essentially similar to those reported previously in the case of horseradish peroxidase [J. Sakurada, R. Sekiguchi, K. Sato, and T. Hosoya, Biochemistry
29 (1990), 4093–4098], showing some dissimilar features which are considered to reflect the structural difference between the two enzymes.Abbreviations HOMO

AbstractPurpose: Circulating microRNAs represent a reservoir for biomarker discovery. Our objective was to profile the change in human circulating microRNA associated with recreational use of alcohol at a social event.Material and methods: Blood was collected from healthy volunteers (N?=?16) before and after recreational consumption of alcohol (ethanol). Biochemistry, hematology and ethanol measurements were performed. The change in the serum small RNA fraction was quantified by RNA sequencing.Results: Blood ethanol was undetectable at study entry in all subjects [<10?mg/dL]. After consuming alcohol the median concentration was 89?mg/dL [IQR: 71–138. Min–max 20–175]. There were no changes in biochemistry and hematology parameters. Serum RNA sequencing identified 1371 small RNA species (1305 microRNAs). There were significant increases [adjusted p-value <0.05, fold increase 2 or more] in 265 microRNAs, around a fifth of the total [median fold increase 2.3 [IQR: 2.1–2.5; Max: 3.7]]. miR-185-5p decreased following alcohol exposure [adjusted p-value <0.05, fold decrease 2 or more].Conclusions: The microRNA composition of human serum is dynamic and environmental factors may have a significant impact. Within its context of use the fold change ‘signal’ of a microRNA must be large enough to negate the risk of false results due to background ‘noise’. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to present a mathematical model for the tumor vascularization theory of tumor growth proposed
by Judah Folkman in the early 1970s and subsequently established experimentally by him and his coworkers [Ausprunk, D. H.
and J. Folkman (1977) Migration and proliferation of endothelial cells in performed and newly formed blood vessels during
tumor angiogenesis, Microvasc Res., 14, 53–65; Brem, S., B. A. Preis, ScD. Langer, B. A. Brem and J. Folkman (1997) Inhibition of neovascularization by an extract
derived from vitreous Am. J. Opthalmol., 84, 323–328; Folkman, J. (1976) The vascularization of tumors, Sci. Am., 234, 58–64; Gimbrone, M. A. Jr, R. S. Cotran, S. B. Leapman and J. Folkman (1974) Tumor growth and neovascularization: an experimental
model using the rabbit cornea, J. Nat. Cancer Inst., 52, 413–419]. In the simplest version of this model, an avascular tumor secretes a tumor growth factor (TGF) which is transported
across an extracellular matrix (ECM) to a neighboring vasculature where it stimulates endothelial cells to produce a protease
that acts as a catalyst to degrade the fibronectin of the capillary wall and the ECM. The endothelial cells then move up the
TGF gradient back to the tumor, proliferating and forming a new capillary network. In the model presented here, we include
two mechanisms for the action of angiostatin. In the first mechanism, substantiated experimentally, the angiostatin acts as
a protease inhibitor. A second mechanism for the production of protease inhibitor from angiostatin by endothelial cells is
proposed to be of Michaelis-Menten type. Mathematically, this mechanism includes the former as a subcase.
Our model is different from other attempts to model the process of tumor angiogenesis in that it focuses (1) on the biochemistry
of the process at the level of the cell; (2) the movement of the cells is based on the theory of reinforced random walks;
(3) standard transport equations for the diffusion of molecular species in porous media.
One consequence of our numerical simulations is that we obtain very good computational agreement with the time of the onset
of vascularization and the rate of capillary tip growth observed in rabbit cornea experiments [Ausprunk, D. H. and J. Folkman
(1977) Migration and proliferation of endothelial cells in performed and newly formed blood vessels during tumor angiogenesis,
Microvasc Res., 14, 73–65; Brem, S., B. A. Preis, ScD. Langer, B. A. Brem and J. Folkman (1997) Inhibition of neovascularization by an extract
derived from vitreous Am. J. Opthalmol., 84, 323–328; Folkman, J. (1976) The vascularization of tumors, Sci. Am., 234, 58–64; Gimbrone, M. A. Jr, R. S. Cotran, S. B. Leapman and J. Folkman (1974) Tumor growth and neovascularization: An experimental
model using the rabbit cornea, J. Nat. Cancer Inst., 52, 413–419]. Furthermore, our numerical experiments agree with the observation that the tip of a growing capillary accelerates
as it approaches the tumor [Folkman, J. (1976) The vascularization of tumors, Sci. Am., 234, 58–64].

The accuracy of predicting protein folding types can be significantly enhanced by a recently developed algorithm in which the coupling effect among different amino acid components is taken into account [Chou and Zhang (1994)J. Biol. Chem.
269, 22014-22020]. However, in practical calculations using this powerful algorithm, one may sometimes face illconditioned matrices. To overcome such a difficulty, an effective eigenvalue-eigenvector approach is proposed. Furthermore, the new approach has been used to predict a recently constructed set of 76 proteins not included in the training set, and the accuracy of prediction is also much higher than those of other methods. 相似文献

A number of methods to predicting the folding type of a protein based on its amino acid composition have been developed during the past few years. In order to perform an objective and fair comparison of different prediction methods, a Monte Carlo simulation method was proposed to calculate the asymptotic limit of the prediction accuracy [Zhang and Chou (1992),Biophys. J.
63, 1523–1529, referred to as simulation method I]. However, simulation method I was based on an oversimplified assumption, i.e., there are no correlations between the compositions of different amino acids. By taking into account such correlations, a new method, referred to as simulation method II, has been proposed to recalculate the objective accuracy of prediction for the least Euclidean distance method [Nakashimaet al. (1986),J. Biochem.
99, 152–162] and the least Minkowski distance method [Chou (1989),Prediction in Protein Structure and the Principles of Protein Conformation, Plenum Press, New York, pp. 549–586], respectively. The results show that the prediction accuracy of the former is still better than that of the latter, as found by simulation method I; however, after incorporating the correlative effect, the objective prediction accuracies become lower for both methods. The reason for this phenomenon is discussed in detail. The simulation method and the idea developed in this paper can be applied to examine any other statistical prediction method, including the computersimulated neural network method. 相似文献

Abstract We present a parallel algorithm for molecular dynamics involving short-range two- and three-body potentials and the pair-correlation function, g(r). The method is based on a spatial decomposition of the simulation box that takes advantage of a linked-cell list, and allows a load balanced partition of the computations of both the forces and g(r) over the processors. The tests of the program is conducted by evaluating the efficiency for both the thermalization phase and the production phase of the simulation. This method is successfully applied to the calculation of the direct correlation function of fluid krypton at small scattering angle along the T = 297 K supercritical isotherm. 相似文献
