▼ The mechanical characteristic of the cell is primarily performed by the cytoskeleton. Microtubules, actin, and intermediate filaments are the three main cytoskeletal polymers. Of these, microtubules are the stiffest and have multiple functions within a cell that include: providing tracks for intracellular transport, transmitting the mechanical force necessary for cell division during mitosis, and providing sufficient stiffness for propulsion in flagella and cilia. Microtubule mechanics has been studied by a variety of methods: detailed molecular dynamics (MD), coarse-grained models, engineering type models, and elastic continuum models. In principle, atomistic MD simulations should be able to predict all desired mechanical properties of a single molecule, however, in practice the large computational resources are required to carry out a simulation of larger biomolecular system. Due to the limited accessibility using even the most ambitious all-atom models and the demand for the multiscale molecular modeling and simulation, the emergence of the reduced models is critically important to provide the capability for investigating the biomolecular dynamics that are critical to many biological processes. Then the coarse-grained models, such as elastic network models and anisotropic network models, have been shown to bequite accurate in predicting microtubule mechanical response, but still requires significant computational resources. On the other hand, the microtubule is treated as comprising materials with certain continuum material properties. Such continuum models, especially Euler-Bernoulli beam models, are often used to extract mechanical parameters from experimental results. The microtubule is treated as comprising materials with certain continuum material properties. Such continuum models, especially Euler-Bernoulli beam models in which the biomolecular system is assumed as homogeneous isotropic materials with solid cross-sections, are often used to extract mechanical parameters from experimental results. However, in real biological world, these homogeneous and isotropic assumptions are usually invalidate. Thus, instead of using hypothesized model, a specific continuum model at mesoscopic scale can be introduced based upon data reduction of the results from molecular simulations at atomistic level. Once a continuum model is established, it can provide details on the distribution of stresses and strains induced within the biomolecular system which is useful in determining the distribution and transmission of these forces to the cytoskeletal and sub-cellular components, and help us gain a better understanding in cell mechanics. A data-driven model reduction approach to the problem of microtubule mechanics as an application is present, a beam element is constructed for microtubules based upon data reduction of the results from molecular simulation of the carbon backbone chain of αβ-tubulin dimers. The data base of mechanical responses to various types of loads from molecular simulation is reduced to dominant modes.

▼ Key metrics for understanding cell response to mechanical stimuli include rearrangement of the cytoskeletal and nucleoskeletal structure, induced strains and biochemical distributions; however, structural information during applied stress is limited by our ability to image cells under load. In order to study the mechanics of single cells and subcellular components under load, I have developed a unique imaging system that combines an atomic force microscope (AFM) with both vertical light-sheet (VLS) illumination and a new imaging technique called PRISM – Pathway Rotated Imaging for Sideways Microscopy. The combined AFM and PRISM system facilitates the imaging of cell deformation in the direction of applied force with accompanying pico-Newton resolution force measurements. The additional inclusion of light-sheet microscopy improves the signal-to-noise ratio achieved by illumination of only a thin layer of the cell. This system is capable of pico-newton resolution force measurements with simultaneous side-view high frame rate imaging for single-molecule and single-cell force studies. Longer-term goals for this instrument are to investigate how external mechanical stimuli, specifically single-molecule interactions, alter gene expression, motility, and differentiation. The overall goal of my dissertation work is to design a tool useful for mechanobiology studies of single cells. This requires the design and implementation of PRISM and VLS systems that can be coupled to the standard Asylum AFM on inverted optical microscope. I also examine the strategy and implementation of experimental procedures and data analysis pipelines for single-cell and single-molecule force spectroscopy. These goals can be broken down as follows: • Performed single-molecule force spectroscopy experiments. • Performed single-cell force spectroscopy experiments. • Constructed and characterized the side-view microscopy system. • Applied combined AFM and side-vew microscopy system.

▼ Many problems of scientific and industrial interest are investigated through numerically solving partial differential equations (PDEs). For some of these problems, the scope of the investigation is limited by the costs of computational resources. A new approach to reducing these costs is the use of coprocessors, such as graphics processing units (GPUs) and Many Integrated Core (MIC) cards, which can execute floating point operations at a higher rate than a central processing unit (CPU) of the same cost. This is achieved through the use of a large number of processors in a single device, each with very limited dedicated memory per thread. Codes for a number of continuum methods, such as boundary element methods (BEM), finite element methods (FEM) and finite difference methods (FDM) have already been implemented on coprocessor architectures. These methods were designed before the adoption of coprocessor architectures, so implementing them efficiently with reduced thread-level memory can be challenging. There are other methods that do operate efficiently with limited thread-level memory, such as Monte Carlo methods (MCM) and lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM) for kinetic formulations of PDEs, but they are not competitive on CPUs and generally have poorer convergence than the continuum methods. In this work, we introduce a class of methods in which the parallelism of kinetic formulations on GPUs is combined with the better convergence of continuum methods on CPUs. We first extend an existing Feynman-Kac formulation for determining the principal eigenpair of an elliptic operator to create a version that can retrieve arbitrarily many eigenpairs. This new method is implemented for multiple GPUs, and combined with a standard deflation preconditioner on multiple CPUs to create a hybrid concurrent method with superior convergence to that of the deflation preconditioner alone. The hybrid method exhibits good parallelism, with an efficiency of 80% on a problem with 300 million unknowns, run on a configuration of 324 CPU cores and 54 GPUs.

▼ The cylindrical ion trap (CIT) provides many advantages for implementing mass spectrometry at elevated background pressures, presenting a practical route for the realization of a hand-portable device with performance that is suitable for many critical applications. This objective can be achieved through favorable scaling properties whereby high drive frequencies combined with small trap dimensions compensate for the loss of mass resolution from higher collisional damping rates. However, the simplified geometry of the CIT from the ideal hyperbolic electrode profile gives rise to higher-order fields that must be optimized for satisfactory performance. Previous investigations of CIT geometry have addressed performance at relatively low background pressures (ca. 1 mTorr) with only a few trap configurations. In this work, a practical range of CIT geometry parameters was experimentally evaluated at pressures between ca. 20 to 1000 mTorr of helium at a drive frequency of 9 MHz for ring electrodes with a 0.500 mm radius. Mesh-covered endcap electrodes were substituted for the traditional aperture-style design to mitigate alignment concerns, which proved to be robust and not inherently limiting to resolution. The study focused on the major parameters of ring electrode thickness (0.600, 0.650, 0.700, 0.750 and 0.800 mm) and ring-to-endcap spacing (varied between 0.075 to 0.300 mm) for a total of 20 unique traps. The optimization results are reported in terms of these dimensions and are also generalized by correlating performance changes to specific multipole fields. The octopole was found to be strongly correlated with trends in resolution at all pressures, with the dodecapole serving a minor role; the effects of all higher terms were confirmed to be inconsequential on a first-approach basis. At lower pressures resolution was primarily improved through an extension of the overall field linearity and the enhancement of an octopolar nonlinear resonance for double-resonance ejection, while at higher pressures it appears to benefit from the dynamic stabilization offered by more-than-linear fields. Thus, the optimal trap geometry was found to vary with the degree of damping and the mode of mass analysis. However, the spectral peak width was minimized over the widest pressure range with octopole strengths near 10% relative to the quadrupole. Advisors/Committee Members: Chernookiy, Dmitriy, Ramsey, J.
