For one-semester, advanced undergraduate/graduate courses in Biotransport Engineering. Presenting engineering fundamentals and biological applications in a unified way, this text provides students with the skills necessary to develop and critically analyze models of biological transport and reaction processes. It covers topics in fluid mechanics, mass transport, and biochemical interactions, with engineering concepts motivated by specific biological problems.
A. INTRODUCTION TO PHYSIOLOGICAL FLUID MECHANICS.
B. FUNDAMENTALS AND APPLICATIONS OF MASS TRANSPORT.
C. THE EFFECT OF MASS TRANSPORT UPON BIOCHEMICAL INTERACTIONS.
