Estimation of intestinal unstirred layer thickness usually involves inducing transmural potential difference changes by altering the content of the solution used to perfuse the small intestine. Osmotically active solutes, such as mannitol, when added to the luminal solution diffuse across the unstir

โฆ Synopsis
To estimate the interfacial velocity in a multicomponent moving boundary problem, existing procedures require an interative technique to be used if a sharp interface method is employed. The need to use an interative technique can cause convergence problems; these become more frequent as more components are added. In this paper, two new methods are suggested which allow the velocity of a phase interface to be evaluated directly from the fluxes of the components under the assumption of local equilibrium. The methods assume that the interface has a fixed width in which the incoming and outgoing components are distributed in a way that moves the interface while maintaining local equilibrium. Example simulations are presented and results are in good agreement with established front-tracking simulation software (DICTRA); moreover, the superior convergence of the new methods is demonstrated.

A local convergence analysis of inexact Newton-type methods using a new type of residual control was recently presented by C. Li and W. Shen. Here, we introduce the center-Hรถlder condition on the operator involved, and use it in combination with the Hรถlder condition to provide a new local convergenc
