Upscaling diffusion through first-order volumetric sinks: A homogenization of bacterial nutrient uptake
In mathematical models that include nutrient delivery to bacteria, it is prohibitively expensive to include a pointwise nutrient uptake within small bacterial regions over bioreactor length- scales, and so such models often impose an effective uptake instead. In this paper, we systematically investi...
