Shape optimization of a microalgal raceway to enhance productivity [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We consider a coupled physical-biological model describing growth of microalgae in a raceway pond cultivation process, accounting for hydrodynamics. Our approach combines a biological model (based on the Han model) and shallow water dynamics equations that model the fluid into the raceway pond.
