Numerical Simulation of Fluid Flow and Hydrodynamic Analysis in Commonly Used Biomedical Devices in Biofilm Studies
Biofilms are microbial communities which can form on most biotic or abiotic surfaces including glass, metal, plastic, rocks, and live tissues. These colonies begin with individual planktonic bacterial cells that attach to a surface and then start to generate a sticky Extracellular Polymeric Substance (EPS). This complex polysaccharide matrix contributes to a modification of the phenotypic statu...

15 صفحه اولCoupled cellular models for biofilm growth and hydrodynamic flow in a pipe
In this paper we present a hybrid model for coupling of biofilm growth and hydrodynamic flow in a pipe. A cellular automata model, which is a discrete model, is used to describe the growth of biofilm. This stochastic discrete model is coupled with a continuum model of the fluid flow in a pipe. The potential applications of the proposed model are the flow in drinking water pipe systems or in aqu...
متن کاملPlanktonic Growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa around a Dual-Species Biofilm Supports the Growth of Fusobacterium nucleatum within That Biofilm
PURPOSE The goal of this study was to understand the potential interaction between Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Fusobacterium nucleatum within the middle ear. METHODS We examined the microbiota of ear fluid and tympanostomy tubes (TTs) obtained from patients with posttympanostomy tube otorrhea. We also examined biofilms formed by P. aeruginosa and F. nucleatum, singly or together, under aerobic...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of flow hydrodynamic around dolphin body in viscous fluid
The biomimetic and hydrodynamic study of aquatic animals is one of the most challenging computational fluid dynamics topics in recent studies due to the complexity of body geometry and the type of flow field. The movement of the aquatic body, and particularly the tail section and the corresponding movement of fluid around the body, causes an unsteady flow and requires a comprehensive study of t...
