Particle deposition in the human lung - Computer Aided Design. Inhaled particles can cause a variety pulmonary injuries and diseases such as asthma, bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) etc. A limited multiple-path model will be employed to simulate efficiencies of particle deposition in the human lung. The model developed in this work is different from other available models in that it is based on an asymmetrical branching network for first three generations. This project ....Particle deposition in the human lung - Computer Aided Design.

The model developed in this work is different from other available models in that it is based on an asymmetrical branching network for first three generations. This project aims to assist people to monitor atmospheric quantity and assess the risk of deposition of particles. A new commercial code will be developed as new marketable software packages.Read moreRead less

Summary
Developing an E-Platform for Application of Clinical Management in the Human Respiratory and Vascular System. This project aims to develop an E-PLATFORM that will provide a simulation-based virtual reality environment for clinical management and therapy treatment in the human respiratory and vascular system. One significant feature of the expected outcomes is the ability for surgeon or physician to adequately plan their treatment or operation decision-making of respiratory or vascular disease, i ....Developing an E-Platform for Application of Clinical Management in the Human Respiratory and Vascular System. This project aims to develop an E-PLATFORM that will provide a simulation-based virtual reality environment for clinical management and therapy treatment in the human respiratory and vascular system. One significant feature of the expected outcomes is the ability for surgeon or physician to adequately plan their treatment or operation decision-making of respiratory or vascular disease, in particular, from the point of view of flow analysis using state-of-the-art computational fluid dynamics techniques. This research proposal aims to facilitate new medical research and development for treatment of respiratory and/or vascular diseases, which can have a great socioeconomic benefit to the Australian community.Read moreRead less
