Osmosisdiffusion
Osmosisdiffusion is a term used in membrane science to describe a coupled transport process in which water moves across a semi-permeable membrane due to osmotic pressure while solutes simultaneously diffuse across the same membrane. The concept generalizes classical osmosis and diffusion by recognizing that, in many membranes, water and solutes move in a linked manner rather than independently.
Mechanism wise, osmosisdiffusion arises when a solute gradient creates an osmotic pressure difference that drives water
Contexts and applications for osmosisdiffusion appear primarily in theoretical models and computational simulations of biological membranes,
Limitations include the fact that the term is not universally adopted and its practical interpretation can
