Book excerpt: Traditional research methodologies in the human respiratory system have always been challenging due to their invasive nature. Recent advances in medical imaging and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) have accelerated this research. This book compiles and details recent advances in the modelling of the respiratory system for researchers, engineers, scientists, and health practitioners. It breaks down the complexities of this field and provides both students and scientists with an introduction and starting point to the physiology of the respiratory system, fluid dynamics and advanced CFD modeling tools. In addition to a brief introduction to the physics of the respiratory system and an overview of computational methods, the book contains best-practice guidelines for establishing high-quality computational models and simulations. Inspiration for new simulations can be gained through innovative case studies as well as hands-on practice using pre-made computational code. Last but not least, students and researchers are presented the latest biomedical research activities, and the computational visualizations will enhance their understanding of physiological functions of the respiratory system.

Book excerpt: Jet fuel with its performance enhancers is highly toxic and when inhaled may pose a significant health risk. Thus, for a scientific assessment of possible health effects from fuel exposure, it is crucial to know where and at what concentrations fuel aerosols and their vapors deposit in the human respiratory system in light of realistic inlet conditions. In contrast to human testing, and/or experimental deposition studies, computational fluid- particle dynamics (CFPD) simulations offer a non-invasive, less expensive, and effective means of obtaining fuel vapor and droplet transport and deposition data for representative airways. Focusing on JP-8 fuel deposition in a representative human upper airway model, experimentally validated CFPD results are provided for the airflow fields, JP-8 fuel droplets, and-JP-8 fuel vapor under realistic ambient conditions. The 3-year-project conclusions, documented in 14 journal articles and 10 conference papers, are divided into three sections, i.e., fundamentals/discoveries, JP-B fuel impact, and technology transfer.

Book excerpt: This book aims to predict and model the transport of bioaerosols, identify their transmission characteristics, and assess occupants’ infection risks. Although existing epidemiological books provide fundamental infection rate of existing diseases, the ability of predicting emerging disease transmission in the air and assessing occupants’ infection risks to the bioaerosols is significantly lacking. This book is considered as a professional book that provides in-depth discussion of the aforementioned issues and provides potential approaches to solve these issues would be highly demanded by readers in this emerging research field. This book offers essential and systematic analysis on the fate of bioaerosols from their release in the air to the final destination in human’s respiratory systems through direct 3D visualizations techniques. It also provides quantifiable method to assess each occupant’s infection risks to the infectious bioaerosols in indoor environments. The readers will gain essential fundamental characteristics of bioaerosols (active time, viability, etc.) and will gain the advanced skills on how to integrate these properties into numerical modeling and assess the occupants’ exposure risks.

Book excerpt: Aerosols have a significant impact on technological processes and human activities. In many cases, aerosols are at the core of human health, environmental and technological problems (climate change and air quality). However, aerosols can be successfully used in industry and technology (new materials, fire suppression and fuel delivery). The current scientific status of aerosol modelling and simulation and measurements and some advances in computational techniques, particle measurement technologies and practical applications of aerosols are reviewed and considered in this book. This book also includes a number of case studies focused on analysis of optical thickness and air quality in various regions.
