Control of Breathing and Its Modeling Perspective
The fifth Oxford Conference was held on September 17th-19th, 1991, at the Fuji Institute of Training in Japan -the first time that the meeting has taken place in the Asian area. The facts that only a relatively few Japanese had attended previous Oxford Conferences and that Japan is far from other regions with possible participants made the organizers anticipate a small attendance at the meeting. However, contrary to our expectations, 198 active members (72 foreign and 126 domestic participants) submitted 146 papers from 15 countries. This was far beyond our preliminary estimate and could have caused problems in providing accommodation for the participants and in programming their scientific ...
Research Directions in Distributed Parameter Systems
Eleven chapters, written by experts in their respective fields, on topics ranging from control of the Navier-Stokes equations to nondestructive evaluation - all of which are modeled by distributed parameter systems.
Biomechanics and Exercise Physiology
Whether you are a bioengineer designing prosthetics, an aerospace scientist involved in life support, a kinesiologist training athletes, or an occupational physician prescribing an exercise regimen, you need the latest edition of Biomechanics and Exercise Physiology: Quantitative Modeling. Using numerous worked examples to demonstrate what and when
Modeling and Parameter Estimation in Respiratory Control
Experimentalists tend to revel in the complexity and multidimensionality of biological processes. Modelers, on the other hand, generally look towards parsimony as a guiding prin ciple in their approach to understanding physiological systems. It is therefore not surprising that a substantial degree of miscommunication and misunderstanding still exists between the two groups of truth-seekers. However, there have been numerous instances in physiology where the marriage of mathematical modeling and experimentation has led to powerful in sights into the mechanisms being studied. Respiratory control represents one area in which this kind of cross-pollination has proven particularly fruitful. While...
Modeling and Control of Ventilation
The origins of what have come to be known as the "Oxford" Conferences on modelling and the control of breathing can be traced back to a discussion between Dan Cunningham and Richard Hercynski at a conference dinner at the Polish Academy of Sciences in 1971. Each felt that they had benefited from the different perspectives from which the topic of ventilatory control was approached - predominantly physiological in the case of Dr Cunningham and predominantly mathematical in the case of Dr Hercynski. Their judgement at that time was that a conference on the control of breathing which allowed investigators with these different (but related) scientific perspectives to present and discuss their wor...
Drug Design
Drug Design, Volume X covers promising and current developments in drug design. The book discusses procedures as applied in the practice of drug design; the structural aspects of the structure-activity relationships of neuroleptics; and promising perspectives in the highly actual field of bioactive peptides. The text also describes the application of the dynamic systems analysis to the antihypertensive drug action; polymeric drug delivery systems; and the design of biocompatible polymers. The structure-activity relationships of insect repellents as a basis for the design of such agents, as well as the approaches to the multivariate data analysis in structure-activity relationships, which is an essential aspect of drug design, are also encompassed. Chemists, pharmacologists, bioengineers, and people involved in drug design and manufacture will find the book invaluable.
Electrophysiological Methods
Physical Techniques in Biological Research Volume VI: Electrophysiological Methods presents the analytical methods and experimental techniques in electrophysiological research. It discusses the handling and analysis of information by computer methods. It addresses the methods of analysis of waveforms, signal characterization and detection. Some of the topics covered in the book are the fundamentals of digital and analog computers; analysis of complex waveforms; operational amplifiers; signal processing and parameter estimation; the core conductor model; voltage clamp techniques; cable theory; automatic computation equipment; and electric accounting machinery. The wave shape generation are covered. The characterization of systematic functions is discussed. The text describes the nerve containing axial wire. A study of the internal thin and outer diffuse electrodes is presented. A chapter is devoted to the simple one dimensional model. Another section focuses on the cylindrical model with radial symmetry and accuracy of membrane potential measurement. The book can provide useful information to experimenters, students, and researchers.
