Dispersion of particles in an infinite-horizon Lorentz gas

Lior Zarfaty, Alexander Peletskyi, Itzhak Fouxon, Sergey Denisov, and Eli Barkai

Phys. Rev. E 98, 010101(R) (2018) - Published 10 July, 2018

While it is known that at long times the particle distribution of a two-dimensional Lorentz gas with infinite horizon is Gaussian, this limit is practically unattainable. The authors tackle the problem using a Levy-walk formalism, and for achievable time scales find a decay in the far tail of the distribution that follows a power law with exponent -3.

Golden aspect ratio for ion transport simulation in nanopores

Subin Sahu and Michael Zwolak

Phys. Rev. E 98, 012404 (2018) - Published 5 July, 2018

This paper presents a scaling theory for the access resistance, a quantity describing the ability of current carriers to converge to an opening. The authors find a particular aspect ratio for the dimensions of a simulation cell that eliminates finite-size effects, which usually make this quantity hard to determine numerically. This opens the door to further progress in molecular dynamics simulations of micro- and nanofluidics as well as charge transport in membranes and nanopores.

Force distributions in frictional granular media

V. S. Akella, M. M. Bandi, H. George E. Hentschel, Itamar Procaccia, and Saikat Roy

Phys. Rev. E 98, 012905 (2018) - Published 20 July, 2018

A classical problem in granular materials is the form of the joint distribution of normal and tangential forces. In this paper, the authors use a maximum-entropy approach to find an analytical form that fits remarkably well with simulated and experimental data. Interestingly, the work predicts the existence of a giant slip event close to unjamming, which is supported by simulation data.

Growth and shape of a laboratory alluvial fan

P. Delorme, O. Devauchelle, L. Barrier, and F. Métivier

Phys. Rev. E 98, 012907 (2018) - Published 23 July, 2018

Alluvial fans are sedimentary deposits that form as a river discharges material when exiting a mountain range. The authors analyze their evolution with a scaled-down experiment that mimics fans and, using image analysis, they are able to measure a number of properties and explain their behavior with an empirical theory. They additionally hint at a possible way to invert the method and infer the flow properties from the observation of the sediment distribution.

Regimes of wrinkling in an indented floating elastic sheet

Dominic Vella and Benny Davidovitch

Phys. Rev. E 98, 013003 (2018) - Published 23 July, 2018

When a elastic sheet floating on a liquid is poked, a wrinkling pattern emerges. This paper utilizes elastic theory to describe this wrinkling and to show how the behavior of the system at different degrees of indentation is influenced by the shape and dimensions of the sheet.

Fixed-density boundary conditions in overdamped Langevin simulations of diffusion in channels

L. Ramírez-Piscina

Phys. Rev. E 98, 013302 (2018) - Published 2 July, 2018

Simulation of Brownian particles moving between reservoirs with fixed concentrations has been a nontrivial problem, for which this work presents a solution. Results for particle concentrations and flux in a model molecular channel agree well with theoretical predictions and suggest that this algorithm for fixed-concentration boundary conditions could be applied to more complicated models.

Precise algorithms to compute surface correlation functions of two-phase heterogeneous media and their applications

Zheng Ma and Salvatore Torquato

Phys. Rev. E 98, 013307 (2018) - Published 30 July, 2018

Calculation of correlation functions is an important step in characterizing heterogeneous media. This manuscript presents efficient and accurate procedures to calculate two-point surface correlations, which have previously been difficult to compute. These algorithms are likely to be important tools for characterizing properties of a variety of multiphase media.

Phys. Rev. E 98, 012905 (2018) - Published 20 July, 2018

A classical problem in granular materials is the form of the joint distribution of normal and tangential forces. In this paper, the authors use a maximum-entropy approach to find an analytical form that fits remarkably well with simulated and experimental data. Interestingly, the work predicts the existence of a giant slip event close to unjamming, which is supported by simulation data.

Alluvial fans are sedimentary deposits that form as a river discharges material when exiting a mountain range. The authors analyze their evolution with a scaled-down experiment that mimics fans and, using image analysis, they are able to measure a number of properties and explain their behavior with an empirical theory. They additionally hint at a possible way to invert the method and infer the flow properties from the observation of the sediment distribution.

When a elastic sheet floating on a liquid is poked, a wrinkling pattern emerges. This paper utilizes elastic theory to describe this wrinkling and to show how the behavior of the system at different degrees of indentation is influenced by the shape and dimensions of the sheet.

Phys. Rev. E 98, 013302 (2018) - Published 2 July, 2018

Simulation of Brownian particles moving between reservoirs with fixed concentrations has been a nontrivial problem, for which this work presents a solution. Results for particle concentrations and flux in a model molecular channel agree well with theoretical predictions and suggest that this algorithm for fixed-concentration boundary conditions could be applied to more complicated models.

Calculation of correlation functions is an important step in characterizing heterogeneous media. This manuscript presents efficient and accurate procedures to calculate two-point surface correlations, which have previously been difficult to compute. These algorithms are likely to be important tools for characterizing properties of a variety of multiphase media.
