Abstract
- In this paper, two mathematical models have been formulated by extending the basic reaction–diffusion model, along with suitable initial and boundary conditions to study the drug delivery and its diffusion in biological tissues from multi-layered capsules/tablets and other drug delivery devices (DDDs), respectively. These devices are either taken orally or through other drug-administration routes. The formulated models are solved using the variational finite element method followed by the fundamental matrix method, to study the drug delivery and its diffusion more efficiently. The main aim of this work is to provide an effective model, using optimal mathematical techniques to help researchers and biologists in medicine in decreasing the endeavours and expenses in designing DDDs. The outcomes obtained are compared with the experimental data to demonstrate the validity and the feasibility of the proposed work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
