Solutions for both, states and sensitivities are obtained by applying an extrapolated linearly implicit Euler discretization scheme. This approach is compared to the widely used sensitivity extensions of multi-step BDF methods by means of case studies. Especially, we point out the benefit of this method in the context of dynamic optimization using the sequential approach.

Aerosol formation can impact severely the separation efficiency of gas cleaning processes. Aerosol or fog formation can arise by spontaneous condensation or desublimation in supersaturated gas phases. The rigorous description of the mass and energy transfer between the gas phase, the liquid phase, and the growing aerosol droplets leads to a system of partial differential and algebraic equations. For the solution of these systems we have developed the plant simulation tool AerCoDe. This program bases upon the linearly--implicit Euler discretisation, which in combination with extrapolation permits an adaptive step size and order control. Typical simulation results of a multistage industrial flue gas scrubbing process are presented. It is shown, that experimental data can be confirmed if the number concentration of condensation nuclei as an input parameter is roughly known.

The discretization of partial differential equations by the method of lines yields large banded systems, which can be efficiently solved in parallel only by iterative methods. Polynomial preconditioning with a Neumann series expansion combined with an overlapping domain decomposition appears as a very efficient, robust and highly scalable preconditioner for different iterative solvers. A further advantage of this preconditioner is that all computation can be restricted to the overlap region as long as the subdomain problems are solved exactly. With this approach the iterative algorithms operate on very short vectors, the length of the vectors depends only on the number of gridpoints in the overlap region and the number of processors, but not on the size of the linear system. As the most reliable and fast iterative methods based on this preconditioning scheme appeared GMRES or FOM and BICGSTAB. To further reduce the number of iterations in GMRES or FOM we can reuse the Krylov-spaces constructed in preceeding extrapolation steps. The implementation of the method within the program LIMEX results in a highly parallel and scalable program for solving differential algebraic problems getting an almost linear speedup up to 64 processors even for medium size problems. Results are presented for a difficult application from chemical engineering simulating the formation of aerosols in industrial gas exhaust purification.

N2 - We study the parallelization of linearly--implicit extrapolation codes for the solution of large scale PDE systems and differential algebraic equations on distributed memory machines. The main advantage of these algorithms is that they enable adapativity both in time and space. Additive Krylov--Schwarz methods yield high parallel perfomance for such extrapolation methods. Our approach combines a slightly overlapping domain decomposition together with a polynomial block Neumann preconditioner and a reduced system technique. Furthermore we get important advantages through the explicit computation of the matrix--products of the preconditioner and the matrix of the linear system. The parallel algorithms exhibit scalability up to 64 processors already for medium--sized test problems. We show that the codes are really efficient in large application systems for chemical engineering problems.

Sufficient and necessary conditions for convergence are studied, which show that the method essentially requires normal matrices. An efficient implementation similar to GMRES has been worked out in detail. Numerical tests on general non--normal matrices, of course, indicate that this approach is not competitive with GMRES. Summarizing, if error minimizing is important, one should rather choose CGNE. A computational niche for GMERR might be problems, where normal but non--symmetric matrices occur, like dissipative quantum mechanics.

In our approach we combine a slightly overlapping domain decomposi tion together with a polynomial block Neumann preconditioner. Through the explicit computation of the matrix products of the pre conditioner and the system matrix a significant gain in overall efficiency is achieved for medium--sized problems. The parallel algorithm exhibits a good scalability up to 32 proces sors on a Cray T3E. Preliminary results for computations on a workstation cluster are reported.

A mathematical model which includes important components such as undiagnosed infectious, diagnosed infectious, latently infected and lost-sight infectious is formulated. The model combines a frequency dependent and a density dependent force of infection for TB transmission. Through optimal control theory and numerical simulations, a cost-effective balance of two different intervention methods is obtained. Seeking to minimize the amount of money the government spends when tuberculosis remain endemic in the Cameroonian population, Pontryagin's maximum principle is used to characterize the optimal control. The optimality system is derived and solved numerically using the forward-backward sweep method (FBSM). Results provide a framework for designing cost-effective strategies for diseases with multiple intervention methods. It comes out that combining chemoprophylaxis and education, the burden of TB can be reduced by 80 % in 10 years.

Although different in vitro or in vivo models have been described, further comprehensive approaches are needed to study specific parts of the disease. This study aimed to combine in vitro and in silico modeling to describe cellular and matrix-related changes during the early phase of OA. We developed an in vitro OA model based on scaffold-free cartilage-like constructs (SFCCs), which was mathematically modeled using a partial differential equation (PDE) system to resemble the processes during the onset of OA. SFCCs were produced from mesenchymal stromal cells and analyzed weekly by histology and qPCR to characterize the cellular and matrix-related composition. To simulate the early phase of OA, SFCCs were treated with interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) and examined after 3 weeks or cultivated another 3 weeks without inflammatory cytokines to validate the regeneration potential. Mathematical modeling was performed in parallel to the in vitro experiments. SFCCs expressed cartilage-specific markers, and after stimulation an increased expression of inflammatory markers, matrix degrading enzymes, a loss of collagen II (Col-2) and a reduced cell density was observed which could be partially reversed by retraction of stimulation. Based on the PDEs, the distribution processes within the SFCCs, including those of IL-1β, Col-2 degradation and cell number reduction was simulated. By combining in vitro and in silico methods, we aimed to develop a valid, efficient alternative approach to examine and predict disease progression and new therapeutic strategies.

In detail, the previously 3D in vitro model is based on 3D chondrogenic constructs generated solely from human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs). Besides studying the normal state of the model over 3 weeks, the in vitro model was treated with interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) to mimic an OA-like environment.

Although different in vitro or in vivo models have been described, further comprehensive approaches are needed to study specific disease aspects. This study aimed to combine in vitro and in silico modeling based on a tissue-engineering approach using mesenchymal condensation to mimic cytokine-induced cellular and matrix-related changes during cartilage degradation. Thus, scaffold-free cartilage-like constructs (SFCCs) were produced based on self-organization of mesenchymal stromal cells (mesenchymal condensation) and i) characterized regarding their cellular and matrix composition or secondly ii) treated with interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) for 3 weeks to simulate OA-related matrix degradation. In addition, an existing mathematical model based on partial differential equations was optimized and transferred to the underlying settings to simulate distribution of IL-1β, type II collagen degradation and cell number reduction. By combining in vitro and in silico methods, we aim to develop a valid, efficient alternative approach to examine and predict disease progression and effects of new therapeutics.

A1 - Leeners, Brigitte A1 - Röblitz, Susanna T1 - Mathematical Modelling and Simulation Provides Evidence for New Strategies of Ovarian Stimulation JF - Frontiers in Endocrinology N2 - New approaches to ovarian stimulation protocols, such as luteal start, random start or double stimulation, allow for flexibility in ovarian stimulation at different phases of the menstrual cycle which is especially useful when time for assisted reproductive technology is limited, e.g. for emergency fertility preservation in cancer patients. It has been proposed that the success of these methods is based on the continuous growth of multiple cohorts ("waves") of follicles throughout the menstrual cycle which leads to the availability of ovarian follicles for ovarian controlled stimulation at several time points. Though several preliminary studies have been published, their scientific evidence has not been considered as being strong enough to integrate these results into routine clinical practice. This work aims at adding further scientific evidence about the efficiency of variable-start protocols and underpinning the theory of follicular waves by using mathematical modelling and numerical simulations. For this purpose, we have modified and coupled two previously published models, one describing the time course of hormones and one describing competitive follicular growth in a normal menstrual cycle. The coupled model is used to test stimulation protocols in silico. Simulation results show the occurrence of follicles in a wave-like manner during a normal menstrual cycle and qualitatively predict the outcome of ovarian stimulation initiated at different time points of the menstrual cycle.

The challenge of PAEON is to provide specialists in reproduc- tive medicine with a computerised model of the menstrual cycle under normal and various pathological conditions, which will allow them to get further in- sight in fertility dynamics. This model also enables the simulation of treatment protocols, which were used within in vitro fertilization. By the definition of virtual patients through biologically admissible parametrizations our approach allows not only the evaluation of a given treatment strategy in silico, but also the design and optimization of such protocols. Once a protocol is formalized in the virtual hospital, the success can be controlled by a treatment execution monitor, which works then as a clinical decision support system. All these tools will be combined in a virtual hospital environment, enabling the access to the PAEON services through the web.

It is increasingly diagnosed in veterinarian healthcare and a topic of ongoing research. In this paper, we explore the different originating conditions of hypokalemia: reduced potassium intake, increased excretion, acid-base disturbances, or increased insulin, by using a dynamic mathematical model for potassium balance in non-lactating and lactating cows. Simulations are compared with literature. The results give insights into the network dynamics and point to scenarios on which experimental effort should be focused. Application of mathematical models can assist in experimental planning as well as the reduction, refinement and replacement of animal experiments.

This lack of individual quantification limits both personalized medication and efficacy evaluation in the treatment of RA. Methods We have developed a novel technology to assess passive resistance of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) III joint (stiffness) and its Passive Range of Motion (PRoM). Within this pilot study, nineteen female postmenopausal RA patients and nine healthy controls were examined in the evening as well as in the morning of the following day. To verify the specificity of the biomechanical quantification, eleven patients with RA were assessed both prior to and ∼3 h after glucocorticoid therapy. Results While the healthy controls showed only minor changes between afternoon and morning, in RA patients mean±SD PRoM decreased significantly by 18 ± 22% and stiffness increased significantly by 20 ± 18% in the morning compared with the previous afternoon. We found a significant positive correlation between RA activity and biomechanical measures. Glucocorticoids significantly increased mean PRoM by 16 ± 11% and reduced mean stiffness by 23 ± 22%. Conclusion This technology allowed mechanical stiffness to be quantified in MCP joints, and has demonstrated high sensitivity in respect to disease status as well as medication effect in RA patients. Such non-invasive, low risk, and rapid assessment of biomechanical joint stiffness opens a novel avenue for judging therapy efficacy in patients with RA, and potentially also in other non-RA inflammatory joint diseases.

T1 - Quantifying Asymmetry in Gait: A Weighted Universal Symmetry Index to Evaluate 3D Ground Reaction Forces JF - Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology N2 - Though gait asymmetry is used as a metric of functional recovery in clinical rehabilitation, there is no consensus on an ideal method for its evaluation. Various methods have been proposed but are limited in scope, as they can often use only positive signals or discrete values extracted from time-scale data as input. By defining five symmetry axioms, a framework for benchmarking existing methods was established and a new method was described here for the first time: the weighted universal symmetry index (wUSI), which overcomes limitations of other methods. Both existing methods and the wUSI were mathematically compared to each other and in respect to their ability to fulfill the proposed symmetry axioms. Eligible methods that fulfilled these axioms were then applied using both discrete and continuous approaches to ground reaction force (GRF) data collected from healthy gait, both with and without artificially induced asymmetry using a single instrumented elbow crutch. The wUSI with a continuous approach was the only symmetry method capable of determining GRF asymmetries in different walking conditions in all three planes of motion. When used with a continuous approach, the wUSI method was able to detect asymmetries while avoiding artificial inflation, a common problem reported in other methods. In conclusion, the wUSI is proposed as a universal method to quantify three-dimensional GRF asymmetries, which may also be expanded to other biomechanical signals.
