具有流体动力学相互作用的活性布朗细丝:构象和动力学

Active Brownian filaments with hydrodynamic interactions: conformations and dynamics

Aitor Martin-Gomez, Thomas Eisenstecken, Gerhard Gompper, Roland G. Winkler

摘要:

通过布朗动力学模拟和分析理论,研究了存在流体动力学相互作用的活性自推进纤维/聚合物的构象和动力学性质。在数值上,一个离散的线性链组成的活性布朗粒子,被认为是一个连续的线性半柔性聚合物的主动速度变化扩散。的力自由的活性单体的性质占-没有Stokeslet流体流动引起的主动力-和高阶流体动力学多极矩被忽略。活性过程的非平衡特性意味着通过聚合物弛豫时间对HI的稳态性质的依赖性。特别地,在中等活性下,HI导致柔性和半柔性聚合物的显著收缩,其程度远远超过可比较的自由排水聚合物的收缩;甚至柔性HI聚合物收缩,而活性自由排水聚合物单调溶胀。大的活动意味着再溶胀,然而,在较小的程度上比非HI聚合物,由于流体动力学相互作用的聚合物弛豫时间较短所造成的。聚合物均方位移增强,并出现活性决定的弹道制度。在很宽的时间尺度上,灵活的活性聚合物表现出流体动力学治理subdiffusive制度,与指数显着小于劳斯和Zimm模型的被动聚合物。与模拟相比,近似解析方法预测的流体动力学效应较弱。

英文摘要:

The conformational and dynamical properties of active self-propelled filaments/polymers are investigated in the presence of hydrodynamic interactions by both, Brownian dynamics simulations and analytical theory. Numerically, a discrete linear chain composed of active Brownian particles is considered, analytically, a continuous linear semiflexible polymer with active velocities changing diffusively. The force-free nature of active monomers is accounted for - no Stokeslet fluid flow induced by active forces - and higher order hydrodynamic multipole moments are neglected. The nonequilibrium character of the active process implies a dependence of the stationary-state properties on HI via the polymer relaxation times. In particular, at moderate activities, HI lead to a substantial shrinkage of flexible and semiflexible polymers to an extent far beyond shrinkage of comparable free-draining polymers; even flexible HI-polymers shrink, while active free-draining polymers swell monotonically. Large activities imply a reswelling, however, to a less extent than for non-HI polymers, caused by the shorter polymer relaxation times due to hydrodynamic interactions. The polymer mean square displacement is enhanced, and an activity-determined ballistic regime appears. Over a wide range of time scales, flexible active polymers exhibit a hydrodynamically governed subdiffusive regime, with an exponent significantly smaller than that of the Rouse and Zimm models of passive polymers. Compared to simulations, the approximate analytical approach predicts a weaker hydrodynamic effect.
