Hydrodynamic memory force or Basset force has been known since the 19th century. Its influence on Brownian motion remains, however, mostly unexplored. Here we investigate its role in nonlinear transport and diffusion within a paradigmatic model of tilted washboard potential. In this model, a giant enhancement of driven diffusion over its potential-free limit [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 010602 (2001)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.87.010602] presents a well-established paradoxical phenomenon. In the overdamped limit, it occurs at a critical tilt of vanishing potential barriers. However, for weak damping, it takes place surprisingly at another critical tilt, where the potential barriers are clearly expressed. Recently we showed [Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 180603 (2019)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.123.180603] that Basset force could make such a diffusion enhancement enormously large. In this paper, we discover that even for moderately strong damping, where the overdamped theory works very well when the memory effects are negligible, substantial hydrodynamic memory unexpectedly makes a strong impact. First, the diffusion boost occurs at nonvanishing potential barriers and can be orders of magnitude larger. Second, transient anomalous diffusion regimes emerge over many time decades and potential periods. Third, particles' mobility can also be dramatically enhanced, and a long transient supertransport regime emerges.

Simulating fish autonomous swimming behaviours using deep reinforcement learning based on Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks.

The study of fish swimming behaviours and locomotion mechanisms holds significant scientific and engineering value. With the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence, a new method combining deep reinforcement learning (DRL) with computational fluid dynamics has emerged and been applied to simulate the fish's adaptive swimming behaviour, where the complex fish behaviour is decoupled to focus on the fish's response to the hydrodynamic field, and the simulation is driven by reward-based objectives to model the fish's swimming behaviour. However, the scale of this cross-disciplinary method is directly affected by the efficiency of the DRL model.

The double distribution function approach is an efficient route toward an extension of kinetic solvers to compressible flows. With a number of realizations available, an overview and comparative study in the context of high-speed compressible flows is presented. We discuss the different variants of the energy partition, analyses of hydrodynamic limits, and a numerical study of accuracy and performance with the particles on demand realization.

The loss of phosphorous (P) from the land to aquatic systems has polluted waters and threatened food production worldwide. Systematic trend analysis of P, a nonrenewable resource, has been challenging, primarily due to sparse and inconsistent historical data. Here, we leveraged intensive hydrometeorological data and the recent renaissance of deep learning approaches to fill data gaps and reconstruct temporal trends.

Article Synopsis
  • - Alzheimer's disease (AD) leads to cognitive decline due to amyloid-β and tau protein buildup, while current treatments only alleviate symptoms, highlighting a need for approaches that can reverse cognitive impairment, like combining cannabidiol (CBD) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).
  • - Researchers developed mannose-conjugated chitosan-coated poly(d,l-lactide--glycolide) nanoparticles for targeted delivery of CBD and BDNF across the blood-brain barrier, utilizing the glucose transporter-1 (GLUT-1) receptor for enhanced effectiveness in the brain.
  • - The nanoparticles showed a particle size of about 306 nm with a high positive charge, enabling a controlled release of CBD for up to 22 days
