2. 1. Numerical Modeling of Atomization in Spray Systems

   Author : Michele Pütz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spray modeling; quadrature-based moment methods; atomization; numerical simulation; Multiphase; population balance equations;

   Abstract : Dispersed multiphase flows refer to dynamic systems comprising two or more phases where at least one phase is in the form of fine particles evolving in and interacting with a surrounding fluid. Spray systems fall into that category. READ MORE

4. 2. Dynamic Modelling of Emulsification in High-Pressure Homogenizers

   Author : Andreas Håkansson; Livsmedelsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Population Balance Equations; Emulsification; High-Pressure Homogenization; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Mathematical Modelling.;

   Abstract : Different approaches and sub-models for the modelling of emulsification in a high-pressure homogenizer are reviewed and compared in terms of both practical aspects and how well they describe what is currently known on the emulsification process in general and on high-pressure homogenization in particular. Special effort is devoted to comparing the model developments presented in the appended papers to their alternatives and previous suggestions. READ MORE

5. 3. Mathematical Modelling of Cellular Ageing: a Multi-Scale Perspective

   Author : Barbara Schnitzer; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; replicative ageing; healthy ageing; yeast; complex systems; multi-scale model; hybrid model; flux balance analysis; ordinary differential equations; Boolean modelling;

   Abstract : In a growing and increasingly older population, we are progressively challenged by the impact of ageing on individuals and society. The UN declared the years 2021-2030 as the Decade of Healthy Ageing, highlighting the efforts to minimise the burden of ageing and age-related diseases. READ MORE

6. 4. The balance between under- and over-immunosuppression after heart transplantation with emphasis on acute cellular rejection and chronic kidney disease. Experiences from Skåne University Hospital in Lund 1988-2010

   Author : Carl Söderlund; Kardiologi; []
   Keywords : heart transplantation; immunosuppression; acute cellular rejection; chronic kidney disease; generic; heart transplantation; immunosuppression; acute cellular rejection; chronic kidney disase; generic;

   Abstract : Background and aims:Heart transplantation (HT) constitutes the ultimate treatment choice for end-stage heart failure. Following HT, patients require life-long immunosuppressive treatment to prevent allograft rejection. READ MORE

7. 5. Kinetic Models in Life Science — Contributions to Methods and Applications

   Author : Joachim Almquist; Stiftelsen Fraunhofer-Chalmers Centrum för Industrimatematik (FCC); []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NLME modeling; kinetic models; FOCE; Mig1; cell-to-cell variability; pharmacokinetics; parameter estimation; ticagrelor; atrial fibrillation; Kv1.5;

   Abstract : Kinetic models in life science combine mathematics and biology to answer questions from areas such as cell biology, physiology, biotechnology, and drug development. The idea of kinetic models is to represent a biological system by a number of biochemical reactions together with mathematical expressions for the reaction kinetics, i.e. READ MORE
