A mathematical model for fluid-glucose-albumin transport in peritoneal dialysis
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 ...
