Oxygen consumption in regenerating tissue [PDF]
Little knowledge has been obtained as to the rate of metabolism of regenerating tissue as compared with that of normal tissue. Child,'15,2 has found that susceptibility or physiological resistance of organisms varies directly with the rate of metabolism.

Water and air consumption aboard interstellar arks [PDF]
The architecture of a large interstellar spaceship, which is capable of serving as a living environment for a population over many generations, is mainly dictated by the needs of said population in terms of food, water and breathable gases. These resources cannot be stored for the entire duration of a journey that goes on for several centuries, so they

A new model for the emergence of blood capillary networks [PDF]
We propose a new model for the emergence of blood capillary networks. We assimilate the tissue and extra cellular matrix as a porous medium, using Darcy's law for describing both blood and intersticial fluid flows. Oxygen obeys a convection-diffusion-reaction equation describing advection by the blood, diffusion and consumption by the tissue.
