Issue Date: | 2008 | Publisher: | AMER PHYSICAL SOC | Source: | PHYSICAL REVIEW E, 78(1) | Abstract: | We extend the analysis of a thermal Brownian motor reported by Van den Broeck [Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 090601 (2004)] to a three-dimensional configuration. We calculate the friction coefficient, diffusion coefficient, and drift velocity as functions of shape and present estimates based on physically realistic parameter values. | Notes: | Hasselt Univ, B-3590 Diepenbeek, Belgium. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/8433 | ISSN: | 1539-3755 | DOI: | 10.1103/PhysRevE%2E78%2E011102 | ISI #: | 000258178600008 | Category: | A1 | Type: | Journal Contribution | Validations: | ecoom 2009 |
