This work presents an efficient simulation for the two-dimensional bidomain model, a non-linear system of partial differential equations which is widely used for simulation of the electrical activity of the heart. The accuracy of the solution is obtained by using an anisotropic time-dependent adaptive method. The method reduces greatly the number of element and therefore the computational time. Two-dimensional numerical results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.

Stenosis causes the narrowing of arteries due to plaque buildup, which impedes blood flow and affects flow dynamics. This work numerically analyzes flow fluctuations in stenosed arteries under realistic physiological conditions (resting and exercise) and external body acceleration. The artery is inclined at angle , and blood rheology is modeled using a generalized power-law fluid.

Context: The two-dimensional graphene/MoTe heterostructure holds extensive potential applications in optoelectronic devices, sensors, and catalysts. To expand its optical applications, this study systematically investigates the adsorption stability of metal atoms (Au, Pt, Pd, and Fe) on the graphene/MoTe and their influence on its optoelectronic properties employing first-principles methods. The findings indicate that after the adsorption of Au and Pd, the structure retains its direct bandgap properties, while the adsorption of Pt and Fe exhibits indirect bandgap characteristics.

The emergence of nanopores in two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials offers an attractive solid-state platform for high-throughput and low-cost DNA sequencing. However, several challenges remain to be addressed before their wide application, including the too-fast DNA translocation speed (compared to state-of-the-art single nucleoside detection techniques) and too large noise/signal ratios due to DNA fluctuations inside the nanopores. Here, we use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to demonstrate the feasibility of utilizing RNA-DNA interactions in modulating DNA translocations in 2D MoS nanopores.

In the study of GaN/AlGaN heterostructure thermal transport, the interference of strain on carriers cannot be ignored. Although existing research has mainly focused on the intrinsic electronic and phonon behavior of the materials, there is a lack of studies on the transport characteristics of the electron-phonon coupling in heterostructures under strain control. This research comprehensively applies first-principles calculations and the Boltzmann transport equation simulation method to deeply analyze the thermal transport mechanism of the GaN/AlGaN heterojunction considering in-plane strain, with particular attention to the regulatory role of electron-phonon coupling on thermal transport.

Distinct Fermi Resonance Patterns of Weak Coupling in 2D-IR Spectra of 5-Cyanoindole Revealed by Isotope Labeling.

Fermi resonance is a common phenomenon, and a hidden caveat exists in the applications of infrared probes, causing spectral complication and shorter vibrational lifetime. In this work, using the cyanotryptophan (CNTrp) side chain model compound 5-cyanoindole (CN-5CNI), we performed Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy on unlabeled CN-5CNI and its isotopically labeled substituents (CN-5CNI, CN-5CNI, CN-5CNI) and demonstrated the existence of Fermi resonance in 5CNI. By constructing the Hamiltonian and simulating 2D-IR spectra, we show that the distinct Fermi resonance 2D-IR patterns in various isotope substituents are determined by the quantum mixing consequences at the = 1 state, as well as the = 2 state, where the Fermi coupling and anharmonicity play a crucial role.
