On the infusion of a therapeutic agent into a solid tumor modeled as a poroelastic medium.
The direct infusion of an agent into a solid tumor, modeled as a spherical poroelastic material with anisotropic dependence of the tumor hydraulic conductivity upon the tissue deformation, is treated both by solving the coupled fluid/elastic equations, and by expressing the solution as an asymptotic expansion in terms of a small parameter, ratio between the driving pressure force in the fluid s...
متن کاملPlane Strain Deformation of a Poroelastic Half-Space Lying Over Another Poroelastic Half-Space
The plane strain deformation of an isotropic, homogeneous, poroelastic medium caused by an inclined line-load is studied using the Biot linearized theory for fluid saturated porous materials. The analytical expressions for the displacements and stresses in the medium are obtained by applying suitable boundary conditions. The solutions are obtained analytically for the limiting case of undrained...
متن کاملAxially Symmetric Vibrations of a Liquid-Filled Poroelastic Thin Cylinder Saturated with Two Immiscible Liquids Surrounded by a Liquid
This paper studies axially symmetric vibrations of a liquid-filled poroelastic thin cylinder saturated with two immiscible liquids of infinite extent that is surrounded by an inviscid elastic liquid. By considering the stress free boundaries, the frequency equation is obtained. Particular case, namely, liquid-filled poroelastic cylinder saturated with single liquid is discussed. When the waven...
متن کاملFormulation of Ibuprofen Beads by Ionotropic Gelation
Microencapsulation has become a common technique in the production of controlled release dosage forms. Many results have been reported, concerning the use of alginate beads as controlled release drug formulations. Alginate has a unique gel-forming property in the presence of multivalent cations, in an aqueous medium. Ibuprofen is an excellent analgesic and antipyretic, non-steroidal anti-inflam...
