Background and objective Human upper airway (HUA) has been widely investigated by
many researchers covering various aspects, such as the effects of geometrical parameters …

SUMMARY 1 Full‐scale simulations of the virtual physiological human (VPH) will require
significant advances in modelling, multiscale mathematics, scientific computing and further …

Aim To study using computer simulation the effect of irrigant flow rate on the flow pattern
within a prepared root canal, during final irrigation with a syringe and needle. Methodology …

The COVID-19 pandemic is one of the greatest challenges to humanity nowadays. COVID-
19 virus can replicate in the host's larynx region, which is in contrast to other viruses that …

In this study, the deformability of airway walls is taken into account to study airflow patterns
and airway wall stresses in the first generations of lower airways in a real lung geometry …

Characterizing particle deposition in the airways of the human lungs is essential to evaluate
the health effects of particulate air pollution. However, lung deposition is rather complicated …

Considering realistic tracheobronchial airways, transient airflow structures and micro-
particle deposition patterns were simulated with an in-house finite-volume code for typical …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is increasingly applied in the respiratory domain. The
ability to simulate the flow through a bifurcating tubular system has increased the insight into …

Obstructive lung diseases in the lower airways are a leading health concern worldwide. To
improve our understanding of the pathophysiology of lower airways, we studied airflow …

Enthalpy exchangers using hydrophile membrane cores, are attractive devices to replace
regular heat exchangers in ventilating systems. Among the various experimental and …
