An anatomically-realistic computational framework for evaluating the efficacy of protective plates in mitigating non-penetrating ballistic impacts

M Lustig, Y Epstein, A Gefen - Computers in Biology and Medicine, 2023 - Elsevier
Background A major threat in combat scenarios is the 'behind armor blunt trauma'(BABT) of
a non-penetrating ballistic impact with a ballistic protective plate (BPP). This impact results in …

Role of lung lobar sliding on parenchymal distortion during breathing

AE Galloy, JM Reinhardt… - Journal of Applied …, 2023 - journals.physiology.org
Sliding between lung lobes along lobar fissures is a poorly understood aspect of lung
mechanics. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that lobar sliding helps …

Do pulmonary cavity shapes influence lung function?

H Minaeizaeim, H Kumar… - Journal of …, 2019 - asmedigitalcollection.asme.org
Distribution of lung tissue within the chest cavity is a key contributor to delivery of both blood
and air to the gas exchange regions of the lung. This distribution is multifactorial with …

Computational study of lung lobar sliding and the mechanics of breathing

A Galloy - 2024 - search.proquest.com

Development of a finite element model for lung tumor displacements during breathing

E Nutu, HA Petrescu, D Vlasceanu, L Gruionu… - Materials Today …, 2016 - Elsevier
During clinical procedures for investigations of lung tumors, such as bronchoscopy, the
breathing process causes movement of tumor nodules, affecting thus the accuracy of the …

On the formulation of the constitutive relations of a two-phase elastic-deformable saturated porous bilogical material

PV Trusov, NV Zaitseva, MY Tsinker - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
Within the «meso-level» model of respiratory system we consider a sub-model for describing
