An Introduction to Modeling of Transport Processes
Applications to Biomedical Systems
Organized around problem solving, this book gently introduces the reader to
computational simulation of biomedical transport processes, bridging fundamental theory
with real-world applications. Using this book the reader will gain plete foundation
to the subject, starting with problem simplification, implementation in software, through
to interpretation of results, validation, and optimization. Ten case studies focusing on
emerging areas such as thermal therapy and drug delivery, with easy-to-follow
step-by-step instructions, provide ready-to-use templates for further applications.
Solution process using monly used SOL Multiphysics is described in
detail, useful biomedical property data and correlations are included, and background
theory information is given at the end of the book for easy reference. A mixture of short
and extended exercises make this book plete course package for undergraduate and
beginning graduate students in biomedical engineering, biological engineering, and other
engineering curricula, as well as an invaluable self-study guide.
