      Analysis of expired air of fasting male monks at Mount Athos 

      Statheropoulos, Miltiades K.; Agapiou, Agapios; Georgiadou, A. (2006)
      Expired air chemical analysis is investigated as a search and locate method for the early detection of entrapped people under the ruins of collapsed buildings after an earthquake. Fasting individuals were examined as a ...

      An efficient computational fluid-particle dynamics method to predict deposition in a simplified approximation of the deep lung 

      Koullapis, P. G.; Hofemeier, P.; Sznitman, J.; Kassinos, Stavros C. (2018)
      High-fidelity simulations of the complete airway tree are still largely beyond current computational capabilities. Towards large-scale simulations of the human lung, the current study introduces a numerical methodology to ...

      Experimental methods for flow and aerosol measurements in human airways and their replicas 

      Lizal, F.; Jedelsky, J.; Morgan, K.; Bauer, K.; Llop, J.; Cossio, U.; Kassinos, Stavros C.; Verbanck, S.; Ruiz-Cabello, J.; Santos, A.; Koch, E.; Schnabel, C. (2018)
      Recent developments in the prediction of local aerosol deposition in human lungs are driven by the fast development of computational simulations. Although such simulations provide results in unbeatable resolution, significant ...

      Near real-time VOCs analysis using an aspiration ion mobility spectrometer 

      Mochalski, Paweł; Rudnicka, J.; Agapiou, Agapios; Statheropoulos, Miltiades K.; Amann, Anton; Buszewski, B. (2013)
      The ChemPro 100i chemical detector (aspiration-type ion mobility spectrometer) was used for the detection of selected volatile organic compounds known to be potential indicators of human presence. The targeted group of ...

      The trapped human experiment 

      Huo, R.; Agapiou, Agapios; Bocos-Bintintan, V.; Brown, L. J.; Burns, C.; Creaser, C. S.; Devenport, N. A.; Gao-Lau, B.; Guallar-Hoyas, C.; Hildebrand, L.; Malkar, A.; Martin, H. J.; Moll, V. H.; Patel, P.; Ratiu, A.; Reynolds, J. C.; Sielemann, S.; Slodzynski, R.; Statheropoulos, Miltiades K.; Turner, M. A.; Vautz, W.; Wright, V. E.; Thomas, Charles Lawrence Paul (2011)
      This experiment observed the evolution of metabolite plumes from a human trapped in a simulation of a collapsed building. Ten participants took it in turns over five days to lie in a simulation of a collapsed building and ...
