A robust immersed boundary method for flow in complex geometries : study of aerosol deposition in the human extrathoracic airways
The flow and the transport of particles in the human respiratory system dictate the effectiveness of therapeutic aerosols used in inhaled drug delivery. The aerosol particles are generally inhaled through the mouth, passing by the throat before reaching the targeted areas in the lungs. Therefore, kn...
