RISA Lagrangian Approach for Calculating Microsphere Deposition in a One Dimensional Lung Airway Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Using the opensource software openfoam as the solver, a novel approach to calculate microsphere transport and deposition in a 1D human lungequivalent trumpet model (TM) is presented. Specifically, for particle deposition ...
Computational Analysis of Non Spherical Particle Transport and Deposition in Shear Flow With Application to Lung Aerosol Dynamics—A Review
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: All naturally occurring and most manmade solid particles are nonspherical. Examples include airpollutants in the nanoto micrometer range as well as blood constituents, drug particles, and industrial fluidparticle streams. ...
Improving Pulmonary Nanotherapeutics Using Helical Aerosol Streams: An In Silico Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The increasing prevalence of pulmonary ailments including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, lung tuberculosis, and lung cancer, coupled with the success of pulmonary therapy, has led to a plethora of scientific ...
