Two boundary model for freezing front propagation in biological tissue
The response of the living tissue to the effects of strong heating or cooling can cause the blood flow rate to vary by an order of magnitude. A mathematical model for the freezing of living tissue is formulated which takes into account the nonlocal temperature dependence of the blood flow rate when the temperature distribution in the tissue is substantially nonuniform, as in cryosurgery. INTROD...
متن کاملA mathematical model for the freezing process in biological tissue.
A mathematical model has been developed to study the process of freezing in biological organs. The model consists of a repetitive unit structure comprising a cylinder of tissue with an axial blood vessel (Krogh cylinder) and it is analysed by the methods of irreversible thermodynamics. The mathematical simulation of the freezing process in liver tissue compares remarkably well with experimental...
متن کاملMathematical modeling of collagen turnover in biological tissue.
We present a theoretical and computational model for collagen turnover in soft biological tissues. Driven by alterations in the mechanical environment, collagen fiber bundles may undergo important chronic changes, characterized primarily by alterations in collagen synthesis and degradation rates. In particular, hypertension triggers an increase in tropocollagen synthesis and a decrease in colla...
متن کاملLight propagation in biological tissue.
Biological tissue scatters light mainly in the forward direction where the scattering phase function has a narrow peak. This peak makes it difficult to solve the radiative transport equation. However, it is just for forward-peaked scattering that the Fokker-Planck equation provides a good approximation, and it is easier to solve than the transport equation. Furthermore, the modification of the ...
متن کاملMathematical modeling of biological systems
In the past 50 years, major discoveries in biology have changed the direction of science. From the study of the sexual life of oysters, which was in some sense boring for the previous generations, biology has become today the Queen of Science. All hardcore fields, such as physics, mathematics, chemistry, and computer science are now necessary for the big adventure of unraveling the secrets of l...
