In this work, thirteen scenarios in four different combinations of migration orders of the free protein, free drug, and complex formed are studied. The detailed interaction process between protein and ligand is discussed and illustrated based on the mass balance equation, also called mass transfer equation.

This result is known as the Gibbs phenomenon. The present paper introduces a new method for the resolution of the Gibbs phenomenon which follows on the reconstruction method of Gottlieb and coworkers (SIAM Rev. 39 (1997) 644) based on Gegenbauer polynomials orthogonal with respect to weight function (1-x(2))(lambda-1/2). We refer to their approach as the direct method and to the new methodology as the inverse method. Both methods use the finite set of Fourier coefficients of some given function as input data in the re-expansion of the function in Gegenbauer polynomials or in other orthogonal basis sets. The finite partial sum of the new expansion provides a spectrally accurate approximation to the function. In the direct method, this requires that certain conditions are met concerning the parameter lambda in the weight function, the number of Fourier coefficients, N and the number of Gegenbauer polynomials, m. We show that the new inverse method can give exact results for polynomials independent of lambda and with m=N. The paper presents several numerical examples applied to a single domain or to subdomains of the main domain so as to illustrate the superiority of the inverse method in comparison with the direct method.

A system of electrons dilutely dispersed in a hear bath of atomic moderators is considered in the positive one-dimensional spatial half-space with an absorbing boundary at the origin which mimics an electrode. A flux of electrons is assumed to originate at an infinite distance Rom the boundary. The Fokker-Planck equation for the electron distribution function in space and velocity is considered. The density and temperature profiles are determined, and the departure from hydrodynamic behavior near the boundary is studied. Argon and helium are chosen as the moderators, and results with different cross sections are obtained.

We apply the (well-known) quantum-mechanical scattering theory to (H+,H) collisions and calculate the differential elastic cross section as a function of collision energy and scattering angle. This calculation includes the effects Of both direct and charge-exchange scattering. We then solve the time-dependent Boltzmann equation numerically for the H+ distribution function with an initial delta-function distribution. We also consider two approximate models for the collision dynamics, each based on the assumption that charge exchange dominates the relaxation and that no momentum is transferred in a collision (the linear-trajectory approximation). The first model uses the Rapp-Francis [J. Chem. Phys. 37, 2631 (1962)] energy-dependent cross section in the exact kernel which defines the Boltzmann collision operator. The second model uses a hard-sphere cross section in an approximate collision kernel. We compare the relaxation behavior calculated with the approximate formulations with the exact solution. We also calculate the mobility of H+ in H and compare the exact and-approximate; formulations.

In presenting the theory a distinction is made between primary and secondary stability criteria, and this distinction is used to clarify some misconceptions in the literature. The derived stability criteria are then applied to electrolyte solutions as well as to a simple binary mixture. In a simple mixture of hard spheres in wafer, both mechanical and material instabilities are found near the spinodal line along with evidence of long-range hydrophobic forces. Results for the electrolyte solutions indicate that salts with only large ions, such as CsI, and those with a smaller ion, such as Na+ or K+, behave differently near the spinodal line. CsI acts hydrophobicly, and appears to undergo demixing from the solvent, whereas NaCl and KCl, which bind the solvent more tightly, do not show clear signs of any such demixing, but do appear to become mechanically unstable.
