Modeling of Molecular Diffusion in Non-Homogeneous Media

Multiscale modeling of chemotaxis in homogeneous porous media

[1] We present a predictive, multiscale modeling framework for chemotaxis in porous media. This model results from volume averaging the governing equations for bacterial transport at the microscale and is expressed in terms of effective medium coefficients that are predicted from the solution of the associated closure problems. As a result, the averaged chemotactic velocity is an explicit funct...

Membrane microdomains emergence through non-homogeneous diffusion

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND In the classical view, cell membrane proteins undergo isotropic random motion, that is a 2D Brownian diffusion that should result in an homogeneous distribution of concentration. It is, however, far from the reality: Membrane proteins can assemble into so-called microdomains (sometimes called lipid rafts) which also display a specific lipid composition. We propose a sim...

the effects of high non fibrous carbohydrates diet on milk production, inflammation and molecular mechanism of innate immunity in lactating dairy cows

پژوهش حاضر با هدف بررسی اثر جیره حاوی کربوهیدراتهای غیرالیافی زیاد و بروز التهاب در گاوهای شیرده در دو آزمایش جداگانه انجام شد. در آزمایش اول 20 رأس گاو مبتلا به ورم پستان از دو گروه کم تولید و پرتولید (هر کدام 10 رأس) و 20 رأس گاو سالم از دو گروه کم تولید و پرتولید (هر کدام 10 رأس) انتخاب شدند. همه گاوها در دوره دوم و یا سوم شیردهی و در روزهای 80-120 پس از زایش بودند. میانگین تولید شیر در گروه...

Instability Analysis of Miscible Displacements in Homogeneous Porous Media

Numerical modeling of diffusion within composite media

Within biological systems, which contain complex and composite media, diffusion may depend not only on internal geometry, but also on the chemical interactions between solid phase and transported particles. New hierarchical multiscale microstructural model for diffusion within complex media is presented. Hierarchical modeling approach is then employed to construct a continuum diffusion model ba...
