Investigation of network flexibility and identification of reaction essentiality of human host cells infected by S. flexneri

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Keng Cher Soh, Anirikh Chakrabarti

We have developed a consistently reduced core model for HeLa based on the genome scale human reconstruction. This reduced model includes the central carbon pathways, the electron transport chains, all the necessary transport and exchange reactions and the ...

Asymptotic-numerical derivation of the Robin type coupling conditions for the macroscopic pressure at a reservoir-capillaries interface

Alfio Quarteroni, Carlo D'Angelo

In this article the Stokes equations are considered in a domain simulating a capillary bed system. The capillaries are supposed to be thin, parallel and periodic. An asymptotic approximation is constructed. The macroscopic pressure satisfies a Robin interf ...

Data, Parameters & Nonlinearities: Development and Applications of Large-scale Dynamic Models of Metabolism

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Keng Cher Soh, Anirikh Chakrabarti

Dynamic nonlinear models of metabolism offer a significant advantage as compared to constraint-based stoichiometric descriptions. However, progress in the development of large-scale nonlinear models has been hindered by both structural and quantitative unc ...

Thermodynamics of Writhe in DNA Minicircles from Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Jonathan Mitchell

DNA supercoiling plays a role in genetic control by imposing torsional stress. This can induce writhe, which changes the global shape of the DNA. We have used atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to partition the free energy changes driving the writhin ...

Thermodynamic analysis, energy integration and flowsheet improvement of a methanol absorption acid gas removal process

François Maréchal, Emanuele Martelli, Manuele Gatti

This paper analyses the thermodynamic performance and proposes different energy integration schemes for a methanol absorption based acid gas removal process, namely the Rectisol® process specifically designed for the selective removal of H2S and CO2 from c ...

Entropy and order in urban street networks

Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni

Many complex networks erase parts of their geometry as they develop, so that their evolution is difficult to quantify and trace. Here we introduce entropy measures for quantifying the complexity of street orientations and length variations within planar ne ...

On the relevance of volume increase for the length changes of mortar bars in sulfate solutions

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Wolfgang Kunther

The ingress of sulfate ions into cementitious materials leads to the formation of ettringite, gypsum and other phases. The increase in solid volume through the formation of these phases is often assumed to be the only reason for expansion. In this paper we ...

Feedback Perimeter Control for Multi-region Large-scale Congested Networks

Nikolaos Geroliminis

It was recently observed from empirical traffic data that by aggregating the highly scattered plots of flow versus density from individual loop detectors for city regions with homogeneous spatial distribution of congestion, the scatter significantly decrea ...

Multisource Clustering of Remote Sensing Images With Entropy-Based Dempster-Shafer Fusion

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Devis Tuia, Frank Grégoire Jean de Morsier, Maurice Borgeaud, Tsirihasina Sitraka Ranoeliarivao

In this paper, we propose a strategy for fusing clustering maps obtained with different remote sensing sources. Dempster- Shafer (DS) Theory is a powerful fusion method that allows to combine classifications from different sources and handles ignorance, im ...
