Anatomical and physiological simulation for respiratory mechanics.
Injuries in trauma affect anatomical structures, indirectly affecting physiological systems through mechanical behavior and physical proximity. This paper describes the theory for and preliminary results from our approach to couple a three-dimensional (3-D) anatomical model of the chest with a physiological model of respiratory mechanics. In particular, we investigated behavior in quiet, normal...
متن کاملA two-component simulation model to teach respiratory mechanics.
Interactive learning has been proven instrumental for the understanding of complex systems where the interaction of interdependent components is hard to envision. Due to the mechanical properties and mutual coupling of the lung and thorax, respiratory mechanics represent such a complex system, yet their understanding is essential for the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of various respirator...
متن کاملRespiratory Mechanics
Respiratory Mechanics by Theodore Wilson is a slim paperback volume (64 pages) describing three aspects of the way the lungs work: 1) pressure– volume relationships with regard to the lungs, 2) chest wall and muscles with regard to how the respiratory pump works, and 3) gas flow and transport. Relevant details about the author are missing, which I think is a loss. He is Emeritus Professor of Ae...
متن کاملRespiratory 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...
متن کاملRespiratory mechanics in anaesthesia.
The present knowledge of respiratory mechanics in anaesthetized humans is astonishingly scanty. This probably reflects the notion that measurement of the mechanics of ventilation during anaesthesia is difficult to perform. In fact, in mechanically ventilated anaesthetized-paralysed humans, a detailed analysis of respiratory mechanics can be performed readily with simple and commonly available e...
