Multiscale modelling of oxygenic photogranules
A. Tenore, M. R. Mattei, L. Frunzo
This work presents a mathematical model which describes both the genesis and growth of oxygenic photogranules (OPGs) and the related treatment process. The photogranule has been mo…
Free boundary problem for the role of planktonic cells in biofilm formation and development
B. D'Acunto, L. Frunzo, V. Luongo +2
The dynamics of biofilm lifecycle are deeply influenced by the surrounding environment and the interactions between sessile and planktonic phenotypes. Bacterial biofilms typically…
A transient biological fouling model for constant flux microfiltration
V. Luongo, M. R. Mattei, L. Frunzo +4
Microfiltration technology is a widely used engineering strategy for fresh water production and water treatment. The major concern in many applications is the formation of a biolog…
Modeling biological systems with an improved fractional Gompertz law
Luigi Frunzo, Roberto Garra, Andrea Giusti +1
The aim of this paper is to provide a fractional generalization of the Gompertz law via a Caputo-like definition of fractional derivative of a function with respect to another func…
Seeding Dispersal Modeling For Systems of Planar Microbial Biofilms
Andrea Trucchia, Federica Villa, Luigi Frunzo +1
We propose a modeling approach to study how mature biofilms spread and colonize new surfaces by predicting the formation and growth of satellite colonies generated by dispersing bi…
Modeling sorption of emerging contaminants in biofilms
Luigi Frunzo
A mathematical model for emerging contaminants sorption in multispecies biofilms, based on a continuum approach and mass conservation principles is presented. Diffusion of contamin…
