A mathematical model for fluid-glucose-albumin transport in peritoneal dialysis [PDF]

Int. J. Appl. Math.Comp.Sci. vol. 24 (2014) P. 837-851, 2013
A mathematical model for fluid and solute transport in peritoneal dialysis is constructed. The model is based on a three-component nonlinear system of two-dimensional partial differential equations for fluid, glucose and albumin transport with the relevant boundary and initial conditions.
