Design, analysis and simulation of tissue constructs is an
integral part of the ever-evolving field of biomedical engineering.
The study of reaction kinetics, particularly when coupled with
complex physical phenomena such as the transport of heat, mass and
momentum, is required to determine or predict performance of
biologically-based systems whether for research or clinical
implementation. Transport Phenomena in Biomedical Engineering:
Principles and Practices explores the concepts of transport
phenomena alongside chemical reaction kinetics and thermodynamics
to introduce the field of reaction engineering as it applies to
physiologic systems in health and disease. It emphasizes the role
played by these fundamental physical processes.
The book first examines elementary concepts such as control
volume selection and flow systems. It provides a comprehensive
treatment with an overview of major research topics related to
transport phenomena pertaining to biomedical engineering. Although
each chapter is self-contained, they all bring forth and reinforce
similar concepts through applications and discussions. With
contributions from world-class experts, the book unmasks the
fundamental phenomenological events in engineering devices and
explores how to use them to meet the objectives of specific
applications. It includes coverage of applications to drug delivery
and cell- and tissue-based therapies.
