TLDR
In this article, the authors proposed a method to predict the distribution of residence-times in large systems by using distribution-functions for residencetimes, which can be used to calculate the etficiencies of reactors and blenders.

A dispersion model of hepatic elimination: 3. Application to metabolite formation and elimination kinetics.

TL;DR: This dispersion model is shown to be more consistent with transient and steady-state data obtained after the single passage of phenacetin and acetaminophen through the liver than other models of hepatic elimination.

Effect of flow maldistribution on hollow fiber dialysis — experimental studies

TL;DR: Performance of loosely packed hollow fiber dialyzer performance deviated from the prediction based on ideal flow distribution while well packed dialyzers did not deviate.

Solute transport in partially-saturated deformable porous media: Application to a landfill clay liner

TL;DR: Based on the one-dimensional Biot consolidation equations, this article developed an advection-diffusion equation that incorporates saturation, compressibility of the pore fluid and longitudinal dispersivity of the solute transport in an unsaturated, deforming porous medium.

The Definition and Measurement of Some Characteristics of Mixtures

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the important features of such mixtures can be expressed by two statistically defined quantities, the scale and the intensity of segregation, and methods of measuring these are suggested.
