Vascular tissue engineering aims to regenerate blood vessels to replace diseased arteries for cardiovascular patients. With the scaffold-based approach, cells are seeded on a scaffold showing specific properties and are expected to proliferate and self-organize into a functional vascular tissue. Bioreactors can signif…

We explore non-local effects in radially symmetric heat transport in silicon thin layers and in graphene sheets. In contrast to one-dimensional perturbations, which may be well described by means of the Fourier law with a suitable effective thermal conductivity, two-dimensional radial situations may exhibit a more com…
