Abstract:
In this paper we develop a total lung model based on a tree of zero dimensional (0D) airway and acinar models for studying respiratory mechanics during spontaneous breathing. This model utilizes both CT based geometries and artificially generated lobe filling airway trees to model the entire conducting region of the lung. Beyond the conducting airways we develop an acinar model, which takes into account the alveolar tissue resistance, compliance and the intrapleural pressure. With this metho...     »
