Teaching Transport Phenomena in Biological Systems*
نویسنده
چکیده
Teaching transport process to students in medical and biological engineering is very important for their understanding of many of the fluid flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer processes related to biological systems. The classical approach to transport process presentation is compared to an analogical systems approach that is more conceptual and less mathematical. Advantages of the latter approach are that students can more quickly grasp the meanings of processes, and that a broader range of applications can be accommodated.

Living systems are structure determined systems. Teaching is never feasible, but learning is inevitable, a comment by an observer about some aspect of the constant changes occurring while life goes on. Teachers are all those who open up spaces for conviviality and allow congruent changes to take place. T h e re are no instructive interactions in nature . Health and the biology of living systems...
متن کاملMultiple Solutions for Slip Effects on Dissipative Magneto-Nanofluid Transport Phenomena in Porous Media: Stability Analysis
In the present paper, a numerical investigation of transport phenomena is considered in electrically-conducting nanofluid flow within a porous bed utilizing Buongiorno’s transport model and Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg fourth-fifth order method. Induced flow by non-isothermal stretching/shrinking sheet along with magnetic field impact, dissipation effect, and slip conditions at the surface are...
متن کاملA counterpoint between computer simulations and biological experiments to train new members of a laboratory of physiological sciences.
When new members join a working group dedicated to scientific research, several changes occur in the group's dynamics. From a teaching point of view, a subsequent challenge is to develop innovative strategies to train new staff members in creative thinking, which is the most complex and abstract skill in the cognitive domain according to Bloom's revised taxonomy. In this sense, current technolo...
