Basic transport phenomena in biomedical engineering /
Fournier, Ronald L.
Basic transport phenomena in biomedical engineering / Ronald L. Fournier. - 4th ed. - Boca Raton : CRC Press, 2018. - xxix, 626 p. : ill. ; 26 cm.
Includes bibliographies and index.
Introduction. A Review of Thermodynamic Concepts. Physical Properties of the Body Fluids and the Cell Membrane. The Physical and Flow Properties of Blood and Other Fluids. Mass Transfer Fundamentals. Mass Transfer in Heterogeneous Materials. Oxygen Transport in Biological Systems. Pharmacokinetic Analysis. Extracorporeal Devices. Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine. Bioartificial Organs.
This will be a substantial revision of a good selling text for upper division/first graduate courses in biomedical transport phenomena, offered in many departments of biomedical and chemical engineering. Each chapter will be updated accordingly, with new problems and examples incorporated where appropriate. A particular emphasis will be on new information related to tissue engineering and organ regeneration. A key new feature will be the inclusion of complete solutions within the body of the text, rather than in a separate solutions manual. Also, Matlab will be incorporated for the first time with this Fourth Edition."--Provided by publisher.
