Dynamic modeling of how particulate matter (PM) transport, deposit, and translocate from human respiratory systems to systemic regions subject to indoor and outdoor exposures are …
In silico methods can be used to estimate regional deposition of inhaled aerosols in regions of the lung that are inaccessible by direct measurements. Knowledge of deposited dose is …
Airflow and aerosol deposition in the human airways are important aspects for applications such as pulmonary drug delivery and human exposure to aerosol pollutants. Numerical …
Most existing whole lung models neglect the airway deformation kinematics and assume the lung airways are static. However, neglecting the airway deformation effect on pulmonary air …
An understanding of human inter-subject variability is crucial for the implementation of personalized pulmonary drug delivery as well as exposure assessment of airborne …
A comprehensive understanding of airflow characteristics and particle transport in the human lung can be useful in modelling to inform clinical diagnosis, treatment, and …
Despite the prevalence of inhalation therapy in the treatment of pediatric respiratory disorders, most prominently asthma, the fraction of inhaled drugs reaching the lungs for …
Abstract Background Computational Fluid-Particle Dynamics (CFPD) models have been employed to predict lung aerosol dynamics for decades, estimating the delivery efficiency of …
The inhalation route has a substantial influence on the fate of inhaled particles. An outbreak of infectious diseases such as COVID-19, influenza or tuberculosis depends on the site of …
