Gluten-containing food products cause allergic reactions and intolerance in sensitive individuals, i.e., celiac disease or gluten enteropathy. Celiac disease is a disease of the immune system in which gluten is recognized as a harmful agent. The only therapy for people sensitive to gluten is a gluten-free diet. Due to their gluten-free status and s...

The leaky dielectric model from electrohydrodynamics (EHD) was incorporated into the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software called OpenFOAM®. Based on the used literature, it can be said that this implementation of the mentioned model is the most complete. Three sets of two-phase simulations were done. The first set was one- dimensional. I...

Fat soluble vitamins, including vitamin D, are not sufficiently represented in the human diet. Although vitamin D can be synthesized in the body by direct exposure of the body to the sun, often people don’t get enough sun exposure to assure enough vitamin D. Previous research has established that vitamin D deficiency is considered to be a hig...
