Cogorza

A program to predict BAC in bloodstream giving a set of drinks by assuming mass conservation.

Requirements:

  • python 3
  • numpy
  • pandas
  • matplotlib
  • scipy

Input parameters:

  • Body Mass: M (in kg)

  • Gender : man/woman

  • Mass to blood ratio: Cs (L/kg) : 0.067 L/kg

  • Proportion of alcohol absorbed : Abs : 10% for man, 12% for woman

  • Time of alcohol absorption : tabs (between 15 and 60 min, depending on amount and type of food in stomach)

  • initial BAC : a0 (by default, 0 g/L)

  • simulation lenght : in hours

  • time step integration, in seconds (by default, 1s)

  • start time of simulation (0 s by default)

  • For each drink:

  1. Volumne ingested (in mL)
  2. Strenght of alcoholic drink (divided by 100, ej. beer of 5% graduation is 0.05)
  3. initial time of ingestion (in seconds since start time)
  4. final time of ingestion (in secods from start time of simulation)

Resources:

  • An implementation of Python program is provided in Cogorza.py file. The same implementation is provided in jupyter notebook version (Cogorza.ipynb).

  • BACPY.csv is the output data file provided by running the program

  • The "Ouput" folder, a set of output examples are presented as png files. Example:
