BE.430J Fields, Forces, and Flows in Biological Systems, Fall 2004

Title:	BE.430J Fields, Forces, and Flows in Biological Systems, Fall 2004
Author:	Grodzinsky, Alan J.; Lauffenburger, Douglas A.
Abstract:	This course covers the following topics: conduction, diffusion, convection in electrolytes; fields in heterogeneous media; electrical double layers; Maxwell stress tensor and electrical forces in physiological systems; and fluid and solid continua: equations of motion useful for porous, hydrated biological tissues. Case studies considered include membrane transport; electrode interfaces; electrical, mechanical, and chemical transduction in tissues; electrophoretic and electroosmotic flows; diffusion/reaction; and ECG. The course also examines electromechanical and physicochemical interactions in biomaterials and cells; orthopaedic, cardiovascular, and other clinical examples.
