Abstract
The present invention is directed towards systems and methods for simulating and analyzing a change in concentration of solute in a solution. The solution being simulated is encompassed by an interface. The concentration at a first point in time is determined at a set of nodes encompassed by the interface. A spatial cell is associated with each node. An extended concentration is calculated at an extended node. The extended node is not encompassed by the interface. The concentration is calculated at a second point in time at a set of nodes encompassed by the interface, based upon the concentration at the set of nodes encompassed by the interface at the first point in time and the extended concentration.
