A novel SPH method for investigating the role of saliva in swallowing using 4D CT images
The thesis presents novel computer methods towards simulation of oropha- ryngeal swallowing. The anatomy and motion of the human upper airway was extracted from dynamic Computed Tomography (CT) data using a novel tool and workflow. A state-of-the-art SPH method is extended to accommo- date non-N...
