Sentence examples for minimization of free from inspiring English sources

In strict thermodynamic terms, these mechanisms are equivalent, since both involve a minimization of free energy in a system.

A scaling model is proposed for A B diblock copolymers in homopolymer melts based on the minimization of free energy.

Similar trends were also observed for the hydrophilic substrate with the negative zeta potential (Fig. 5c): the minimization of free energy favors configuration β the most, followed by configuration γ, and configuration α the least at the molecular contact (adhesive contact).

On the other hand, in configuration β, both bacterium-bacterium and bacterium-substrate interactions contributes to the minimization of free energy of the system while van der Waals interactions between substrate and bacterium are the main favorable energy term in configuration γ.

Our structural prediction approach is based on a global minimization of free energy surfaces of given compounds by combining ab initio total-energy calculations with the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm.21 The structure search of each TixO (x = 1 6) stoichiometry is performed with simulation cells containing 1 4 formula units.

Referring to the concept of solute partitioning and minimization of free energy, in this work we present an idea that a metallic liquid system containing two liquids with individual self-assembled eutectic composition may yield two-phase BMGs upon casting.

(Freud, 1914; Q173) It is interesting that Freud's notion of a finite 'reservoir' of energy and the reciprocal patterns of activation between the DMN and subordinate networks both fit comfortably with hierarchical minimization of free-energy.

This leads us to predict that the fluctuations in gamma power evident in the large-scale intrinsic networks index the ongoing minimization of free-energy in subordinate levels of the hierarchy (Engel et al., 2001; Raichle, 2007) and could provide an empirical measure of the secondary process.

Since RNA secondary structures play important roles in their functions, various RNA folding algorithms (eg, those based on minimization of free-energy [MFE], 1, 2 formal grammar, 3, 4 and maximum expected accuracy 5) have been developed to analyze RNA sequences.

Another possibility to improve the precision of the entropy is to start the minimization of the free receptor and the free ligand from the minimized structure of the complex [71] or to perform the minimization in a GB solvent [72].

At the end of a collapse, all the reactions of dissociation yielding free radicals in the bubble are assumed at thermodynamic equilibrium so that a local minimization of Gibbs free energy provides the local composition in the bubble.
