for more details of the course.
 Pharmacokinetics
of Magnesium-Sulfate – Ran Menirom (on left)
The project presents a numeric solution for a compartmental pharmacokinetic
model of the drug Magnesium-Sulfate, given to pregnant women in cases of
premature delivery.
Freezing Frogs – Joel Shapiro
(on the right)
The project's aim is to model the propagation the freezing front in a
freeze-hardy frog (Rana Sylvatica). The numeric model includes two
simultaneous PDEs with a moving boundary between them.
 The
Perfect Grilled Steak – Robert Hytymnh (on the left)
This project aims to compute the time taken to grill a medium steak. The
mathematical model accounts for heat transfer, accounting also density
changes caused by water loss by evaporation.
