Direct numerical simulation of particle laden flow in a human airway bifurcation model
(2016)During the delivery of inhaled medicines, and depending on the size distribution of the particles in the formulation, airway bifurcations are areas of preferential deposition. Previous studies of laminar flow through airway ...

Effect of posture change on the geometric features of the healthy carotid bifurcation
(2009)Segmented cross sectional MRI images were used to construct 3D virtual models of the carotid bifurcation in 5 healthy volunteers. Geometric features such as bifurcation angle, planarity angle, asymmetry angle tortuosity ...

Effect of posture change on the geometric features of the healthy carotid bifurcation
(2011)Segmented cross-sectional MRI images were used to construct 3-D virtual models of the carotid bifurcation in ten healthy volunteers. Geometric features, such as bifurcation angle, internal carotid artery (ICA) angle, ...

Fully turbulent flow in a physiologically realistic human airway bifurcation
(TSFP-9, 2015)Recent computational studies have shown that the airflow in the upper human airways is turbulent during much of the respiratory cycle. A feature of respiratory airflow that poses a challenge to computations based on ...

A timestepper approach for the systematic bifurcation and stability analysis of polymer extrusion dynamics
(2008)We discuss how matrix-free/timestepper algorithms can efficiently be used with dynamic non-Newtonian fluid mechanics simulators in performing systematic stability/bifurcation analysis. The timestepper approach to bifurcation ...
