Respiratory fluid mechanics.

This article covers several aspects of respiratory fluid mechanics that have been actively investigated by our group over the years. For the most part, the topics involve two-phase flows in the respiratory system with applications to normal and diseased lungs, as well as therapeutic interventions. Specifically, the topics include liquid plug flow in airways and at airway bifurcations as it rela...

Fluid Mechanics : Numerical Methods

where σ is the stress tensor, ǫ = 12 (∇u +∇u) T is the strain tensor, f is a body force per unit mass (gravity is a typical example), qT is a volume source (it may model chemical reactions, Joule effects, radioactive decay, etc.), and jT is the heat flux. In addition to the above three fundamental conservation equations, one may also have to add L equations that accounts for the conservation of...

Supersymmetric Fluid Mechanics

When anticommuting Grassmann variables are introduced into a fluid dynamical model with irrotational velocity and no vorticity, the velocity acquires a nonvanishing curl and the resultant vorticity is described by Gaussian potentials formed from the Grassmann variables. Upon adding a further specific interaction with the Grassmann degrees of freedom, the model becomes supersymmetric.
