Modelling of two-phase flow in the human tracheobronchial system
The existence of solid particles in the air inhaled could have both positive and negative effects towards the overall human respiratory system. Due to the various factors (physiology, flow characteristics, particle charateristics, etc.) involved, numerical method seems to be the best approach. Hence...
