Computer modeling and simulation

Together, all the inferences from both computational modeling and simulation (which can reveal novel aspects of the receptor mechanisms, based on the dynamic properties of the proteins) serve as mechanistic working hypotheses for new and more focused experiments. This mode of closely considered interactions and synergy between computational developments and experimental probing of the receptor systems has become a sustained characteristic of current studies of structure-function... 

In PNCs, the details of molecular structure and dynamics in the periphery of the nanoparticles (for example, within the lamellar gallery or at the interface) is quite difficult to establish by regular experimental techniques. The inability to monitor the thermodynamics and kinetics of the molecular interactions between the different constituents that determine the structural evolution and final morphology of the materials hinders progress in this field. This is probably the domain where there is an increasing need for computer modeling and simulations. 

Mechanical properties of PNCs can also be estimated by using computer modeling and simulation methods at a wide range of length and time scales. Seamless movement from one scale to another, for example, from the molecular scale (e.g., MD) and microscale (e.g., Halphin-Tsai) to macroscale (e.g., finite element method, FEM), and the combination of scales (or the so-called multiscale methods) is the most important prerequisite for the efficient transfer and extrapolation of calculated parameters, properties, and numerical information across length scales.

We summarise recent work on computer modelling and simulation of proteins involved in bioenergetic processes and in peptide-membrane interactions. Homology modelling, electrostatic calculations and conformational analysis of a photosynthetic reaction centre protein are described. Bacteriorhodopsin, a light-driven proton pump protein is examined from several aspects, including its hydration and conformational thermodynamics. Finally, we present results on lipid perturbation on interaction with a cyclic decapeptide antibiotic, gramicidin S.

Perhaps the most powerful aspect of computer modeling and simulation is that it provides a method through which the human factors and ergonomics team can step up to the table with the... 

The risk of failure or the fear of malpractice often precludes the design and evaluation of controllers in live humans, so that devices and treatments are often tested on computer and animal models first. In the past, animals have been the preferred choice, but this approach is continually being reevaluated. Whereas most researchers readily agree that animal experimentation has been and will continue to be necessary for the advancement of medical science, most would welcome methods and procedures that might reduce or even eliminate the use of animals. Furthermore, animals are rarely perfect models of human diseases and conditions. Thus, there has been and wiU continue to be a demand for alternative models and procedures. Tissue cultures are beginning to fill some of this need, and it is hfcely that computer modeling and simulation may also fill this need. 

The most widely distributed methodology of complex control systems SA is based on computer modeling and simulation (M S) using special methods and software for stability analysis. The typical phases of closed-loop control systems SA by means of M S are the following ... 

The maximum temperature measurement resolution depends on the spatial position of the sensor elements with reference to the distance between the heater and the sensor which can also be optimized. Computational modeling and simulation can provide a predictive capability and the means of evaluating the performance of a new design before hardware fabrication. The effect of varying the geometries of sensors and channel can be tested numerically, with different aspect ratios between them. Further, most fluid...
