The understanding of complex inhalation and transport processes of pollutant particles
through the human respiratory system is important for investigations into dosimetry and …

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models are useful for predicting site-specific dosimetry
of airborne materials in the respiratory tract and elucidating the importance of species …

The major problem in understanding the therapeutically targeted drug delivery system in the
deeper airways of the human lung is the lack of adequate data of particle transport and …

Including the effects of particle–particle collision and particle rotation as well as the volume
of particle occupied in the fluid, the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)–Discrete Element …

The pulmonary route presents an attractive delivery pathway for topical treatment of lung
diseases. While significant progress has been achieved in understanding the physical …

Abstract Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) measurements with the aim of providing
experimental data for the SimInhale benchmark case are presented within this work. We …

In this study, we investigate the steady inhalation, steady exhalation, and oscillatory flow in a
realistic airway geometry for physiologically relevant regimes ranging from quiet breathing to …

The present numerical study investigated the transportation time of the inhaled chemicals in
three realistic human airway models by adopting a methodology from the field of the building …

It has long been recognized that the pattern of particle deposition in the respiratory tree
affects how far aerosols penetrate into the deeper zones of the arterial tree, and hence …

Epicyclic gear trains (EGTs) are important mechanical transmissions with many applications.
For optimal design and operation of these gear trains, it is necessary to obtain complete …
