  2. 11. Numerical Approximation of Reaction and Diffusion Systems in Complex Cell Geometry

    Author : Qasim Ali Chaudhry; Michael Hanke; Maya Gueorguieva Neytcheva; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Complex Cell Geometry; Reaction and Diffusion System; Metabolism in Biological Cells; Homogenization; Compartment Modelling; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : The mathematical modelling of the reaction and diffusion mechanism of lipophilic toxic compounds in the mammalian cell is a challenging task because of its considerable complexity and variation in the architecture of the cell. The heterogeneity of the cell regarding the enzyme distribution participating in the bio-transformation, makes the modelling even more difficult. READ MORE

  4. 12. Computational Modeling of Reaction and Diffusion Processes in Mammalian Cell

    Author : Qasim Ali Chaudhry; Michael Hanke; Bernt Wennberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : PAHs are the reactive toxic chemical compounds which are present as environmental pollutants. These reactive compounds not only diffuse through the membranes of the cell but also partition into the membranes. They react with the DNA of the cell giving rise to toxicity and may cause cancer.

  5. 13. Modeling and Performance Analysis of Alternative Heat Exchangers for Heavy Vehicles

    Author : Wamei Lin; Värmeöverföring; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Countercurrent flow; Graphite foam; Heat exchanger; Thermal performance; Computational fluid dynamics;

    Abstract : Cross flow heat exchangers made from aluminum are common as radiators in vehicles. However, due to the increasing power requirement and the limited available space in vehicles, it is extremely difficult to increase the size of heat exchangers (HEXs) placed in the front of vehicles.

  6. 14. Statistical Modeling and Learning of the Environmental and Genetic Drivers of Variation in Human Immunity

    Author : Jacob Bergstedt; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : During the last decade the variation in the human genome has been mapped in fine detail. Next generation sequencing has made it possible to cheaply and rapidly aquire vast amounts of biomolecular information on large cohorts of people. READ MORE

  7. 15. Solute Transport Across Scales : Time Series Analyses of Water Quality Responses to Quantify Retention and Attenuation Mechanisms in Watersheds

    Author : Joakim Riml; Anders Wörman; Aaron I. Packman; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solute transport modeling; Transient storage; Tracer test; Central temporal moments; Spectral analysis; Parameterization;

    Abstract : The intra-continental movement of waterborne contaminants is governed by the distribution of solute load in the landscape along with the characteristics and distribution of the hydrological pathways that transport the solutes. An understanding of the processes affecting the transport and fate of the contaminants is crucial for assessments of solute concentrations and their environmental effect on downstream recipients.
