Abstract:

Cells, either as unicellular organisms or as part of a tissue of a multicellular organism, can acquire different functions thanks to their capability of changing their expression state. The enzyme synthesis, cell division or cell differentiation are some examples of these functions. The turning on and off of them lie in the mechanisms by which cells are able to integrate the information they perceive from the environment. Frequently, cells exhibit different responses under the same stimulus or environment. These probabilistic processes, whose behaviours are not univocal, are known as "cellular

Abstract:

This Thesis studies different cellular and cell population processes driven by non-linear and stochastic dynamics. The problems addressed here gravitate around the concepts of transient dynamics and relaxation from a perturbed to a steady state. In this regard, in all processes studied, stochastic fluctuations, either intrinsically present in or externally applied to these systems play an important and constructive role, by either driving the systems out of equilibrium, interfering with the underlying deterministic laws, or establishing suitable levels of heterogeneity.

Abstract:

Master of Science<br>Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering<br>Faryad Darabi Sahneh<br>A significant number of processes we observe in nature can be described as a spreading process; any agent which is compelled to survive by replicating through a population, examples include viruses, opinions, and information. Accordingly, a significant amount of thought power has been spent creating tools to aid in understanding spreading processes: How do they evolve? When do they thrive? What can we do to control them? Often times these questions are asked with respect to processes in isolation,

The Bertrand Duopoly model for demand in economics is a well-used model. Although this model has important insights towards pricing strategy, it does not accurately depict true market behaviors. In this paper, we will examine the advantages and disadvantages of the current model and its assumptions.We then take a whole new approach towards modeling this phenomena, using Poisson processes to model the demand of goods. We will discuss why this is a better approach and explain how we can extend this to better understand pricing strategies and market dynamics. We then apply our findings to the new

The main text of the thesis consists of seven chapters. Following the literature survey, the work in Chapter 2 focuses on the study of the whole process of pressure die casting. The necessity of reclassification against the traditional 'three-stage' description is introduced in order to build a new basic tenet in constructing theoretical and practical investigations, which leads to the creation of fluid dynamic mathematical models of the process. On the basis of Chapter 2, Chapter 3 concentrates on dealing with the computer simulation of filling flow patterns occurring in the third stage that

Abstract:

We consider relations of structure and dynamics in complex networks. Firstly, a dynamical perspective on the problem of community detection is developed: how to partition a graph into sets of nodes which have stronger relations to each other than to other nodes in the network. We show how several approaches to this problem can be re-interpreted from a dynamical perspective. It is demonstrated how this perspective can circumvent limitations of commonly used, structure based community detection methods such as Modularity or the map-equation, which are prone to over-partition communities of large

At the same time, our approach together with the analytical results has strong impact on the numerical implementation by providing calculable expressions for known functions and continuity results that ensure robust computatio

Insect-transmitted bacteria of the genus Bartonella infect the red blood cells of mammals, and we investigate host adaptation and genome evolution in this genus. In Bartonella, many host-interaction systems are encoded in a highly variable chromosom

Abstract:

The photophysics of a number of conjugated polymers used in organic display applications has been studied using ultrafast techniques. An updated method for measuring the intersystem crossing rate was developed. This has been used to measure the intersystem crossing in a number of conjugated polymers and oligomers. It was found that as expected the intersystem crossing in conjugated polymers is generally very low. The intersystem crossing in a molecule that exhibits dual fluorescence depending on the polarity of the environment was investigated. In polar solvents when the molecule forms a twist

In this thesis we develop a non convex non-linear programming problem that determines the minimum run time of a rapid, gel-free DNA separation technique called micelle end-labeled free solution electrophoresis (ELFSE). Micelle ELFSE is typically performed in capillary electrophoresis where the capillary length, electric field strength, and micelle drag tag size are the primary tuning variables. Using optimization, we demonstrate that capillary electrophoresis can be used to separate up to 600 bases in under 50 minutes. A significant improvement in performance is then shown to be achievable by

Self-organising processes occurring in isotropic turbulence and homogeneous magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence are investigated in relation to the stability of helical flow structures. A stability analysis of helical triad interactions shows that compared to hydrodynamics, equilibria of the triadic evolution equations have more instabilities with respect to perturbations on scales larger than the characteristic scale of the system. Some of these instabilities can be mapped to Stretch-Twist-Fold dynamo action and others to the inverse cascade of magnetic helicity. High levels of cross-helicit

This thesis uses methods and models from non-equilibrium statistical physics to describe intracellular processes. Bidirectional microtubule-based transport within axons is modeled as a quasi-one-dimensional stochastic lattice gas with two particle species moving in opposite directions under mutual exclusion interaction. Generically occurring clusters of particles in current models for intracellular transport can be dissolved by additionally considering the dynamics of the transport lattice, i.e., the microtubule. An idealized model for the lattice dynamics is used to create a phase transition

The use of networks to model the spread of epidemics through structured populations is widespread. However, epidemics on networks lead to intractable exact systems with the need to coarse grain and focus on some average quantities. Often, the underlying stochastic processes are Markovian and so are the resulting mean-field models constructed as systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). However, the lack of memory (or memorylessness) does not accurately describe real disease dynamics.
