Origami model for breathing alveoli.
We previously proposed a morphogenesis-based 4D model of the alveolar structure. However, the model exists only in computer, and is too complicated to be recognized in 2D display. Origami, a Japanese traditional craft, is a 4D object originated from 2D sheet. We introduce origami models approximating our computational alveolar model. One can make, see, and handle the models by oneself. Seeing i...
متن کاملAbsorption from the Pulmonary Alveoli
Experiments upon dogs anesthetized with nembutal and lasting 4 hours, in which the right lymphatic duct and thoracic duct have been cannulated and collection of lung lymph and blood specimens was accomplished after intratracheal instillation of dog plasma, purified bovine serum albumin, crystallized egg albumin, and hemoglobin, have shown that the absorption of such molecules is slight. Experim...
متن کاملModelling Submicron and Micron Particle Deposition in a Human Nasal Cavity
The size of a particle determines the deposition efficiency, as well as its deposition site. In this paper, different modelling techniques are presented for submicron and micron particles in a human nasal cavity. In addition this paper highlights some deficiencies in the default models available in a commercially available CFD software.For submicron particles the default Fluent Brownian model a...
متن کاملModeling airflow and particle transport/deposition in pulmonary airways.
A review of research papers is presented, pertinent to computer modeling of airflow as well as nano- and micron-size particle deposition in pulmonary airway replicas. The key modeling steps are outlined, including construction of suitable airway geometries, mathematical description of the air-particle transport phenomena and computer simulation of micron and nanoparticle depositions. Specifical...
متن کاملParticle dynamics and deposition in true-scale pulmonary acinar models
Particle transport phenomena in the deep alveolated airways of the lungs (i.e. pulmonary acinus) govern deposition outcomes following inhalation of hazardous or pharmaceutical aerosols. Yet, there is still a dearth of experimental tools for resolving acinar particle dynamics and validating numerical simulations. Here, we present a true-scale experimental model of acinar structures consisting of...
