Reflux in Peristaltic Pumping: Is it Determined by the Eulerian or Lagrangian Mean Velocity?
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Discussion: “Peristaltic Transport” (Fung, Y. C., and Yih, C. S., 1968, ASME J. Appl. Mech., 35, pp. 669–675)

Analysis of Ultrafiltration and Mass Transfer in a Bioartificial Pancreas
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A bioartificial pancreas is an implantable device which contains insulin secreting cells (Langerhans islets), separated from the circulating blood by a semi-permeable membrane to avoid rejection. ...
A Three-Layer Semi-Empirical Model for Flow of Blood and Other Particular Suspensions Through Narrow Tubes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A three-layer mathematical model has been developed and tested for calculating the velocity profile and wall layer thickness for the flow of blood and other particulate suspensions in narrow ...
A One-Dimensional Model of Simultaneous Hemodialysis and Ultrafiltration With Highly Permeable Membranes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A one-dimensional model of combined convective and diffusive mass transfer in a hemodialyser is presented. Solutions and results are given for two regimes of ultrafiltration (UF): at low ...
