| Abstract | The Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) or Drift-Diffusion theory can be used to compute macroscopic current in ion channels in an efficient manner. The major drawback of the standard PNP theory is that it is based on a continuum model for the charge flow, therefore it models ions as a gas of point particles. Water is also not simulated explicitly, but introduced as a background medium with a given permittivity. The PNP model can be modified to include effects of finite ion size and water occupation by including a correction term, the Excess Chemical Potential (ECP), in the standard model. Gillespie et al. [1] developed a model for ECP correction, based on Density Functional theory, which is introduced in an existing 3-D PNP solver for ion transport in biological ion channels realized using the numerical computational platform PROPHET. Since incorporation of the ECP correction directly into the PNP matrix formulation is not an easy task, for demonstration purposes we developed a relatively simple decoupled relaxed iteration algorithm. Preliminary tests were conducted on idealized channel geometries, showing how the adopted ECP correction model alters significantly the ion densities inside the channel from those predicted by the conventional PNP theory alone. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
