Efficient DQMOM for Multivariate Population Balance Equations and Application to Virus Replication in Cell Cultures

Efficient DQMOM for Multivariate Population Balance Equations and Application to Virus Replication in Cell Cultures

Population balances play an important role in process and bioprocess engineering. They represent PDEs which are often multidimensional. The numerical solution of these is quite challenging in particular for high dimensional problems. For this reason the distribution dynamics are usually represented by the respective moments. As the corresponding dynamic moment equations can only be computed in ...

Time Dependent Virus Replication in Cell Cultures

We present in this report a stochastic model for the virus replication of influenza A in a cell culture. We consider not only the infection process of individual cells but also the number of intracellular components expressed in virus equivalent. Given that this expression is non constant in time we suggest a variable threshold, related to a viral resistance in the cell population, that could e...
