Simulations of transport in one dimension
Advection-dispersion equation is solved in numerically by using combinations of differential quadrature method (DQM) and various time integration techniques covering some explicit or implicit single and multi step methods. Two different initial boundary value problems modeling conservative and nonconservative transports of some substance represented by initial data are chosen as test problems. ...
متن کاملIndividualized bicarbonate concentrations in the peritoneal dialysis fluid to optimize acid-base status in CAPD patients.
BACKGROUND A large percentage of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients being treated with standard lactate-containing solutions tend to have serum bicarbonate concentrations below or above the normal range. The inter-patient variability of serum bicarbonate is a result of many influences and it may be appropriate to adjust the bicarbonate concentration in the peritoneal dialysis fluid (PDF) to the ...
متن کاملCAPD - computer-aided plant design
The layout of chemical plants has to take into consideration boundary conditions and requirements of many different engineering fields. In order to assist the design engineer at an early stage during the extended basic engineering, a system for computer aided plant design has been developed. It contains modules for •extended equipment models including equipment related piping and areas for main...
متن کاملPeritoneal solute transport predicts survival on CAPD independently of residual renal function.
BACKGROUND Loss of residual renal function has a profound effect on the survival of peritoneal dialysis patients. Less is known of the impact of peritoneal function. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of solute transport on clinical outcome in CAPD patients. METHODS Two hundred and ten consecutive patients commencing CAPD since 1990 were enrolled into a single centre p...
متن کاملDay-to-day variability of fluid and solute transport in upright and recumbent positions during CAPD.
BACKGROUND The effect of posture on peritoneal transport characteristics during CAPD is unpredictable because (1) although the capillary pressure is higher in the upright position, the intraperitoneal pressure is also elevated, and (2) the contact of dialysate with the subdiaphragmatic lymphatics is probably more extensive during recumbency. METHODS In eight CAPD patients, six peritoneal perm...
