Use of the Weibull Equation to Approximate Diffusive Release from Particles in a Closed System

We consider the problem of Fickian diffusion of a solute (or heat) into or out of a suspension of particles, in a well-mixed solvent. By combining a simple numerical scheme with a Laplace transform method, we are able to efficiently solve this problem for different particle volume fractions (includi...
