Energy Conversion and Entropy Production in Biased Random Walk Processes—From Discrete Modeling to the Continuous Limit
We considered discrete and continuous representations of a thermodynamic process in which a random walker (e.g., a molecular motor on a molecular track) uses periodically pumped energy (work) to pass <i>N</i> sites and move energetically downhill while dissipating heat. Interestingly, we...
