  Numerical simulation of fibre deposition in oral and large bronchial airways in comparison with experiments, Elsevier Ltd
  článek v časopise ve Web of Science, Jimp
  Inhaled asbestos fibres have been implicated in causal relationships with increased frequencies of non-malignant pleural disease, asbestosis, mesothelioma and lung cancer. Replacement fibres are considered to be less harmful, however, their health effects are not fully understood. The objective of the present work was to implement and apply numerical fibre tracking techniques in order to simulate the deposition of fibres in a complex oro-pharyngeal-laryngeal-bronchial system at different inhalation flow rates and compare the results with the outcomes of recent measurements performed in the same geometry. Two different approaches for the estimation of drag force were considered. Simulated deposition efficiency values agreed reasonably well with the experimentally determined values, however, the drag model which considers the anisotropic nature of the geometry of fibres performed better than the one which accounted only for the their non-spherical shape. The highest values of deposition density correlated well with the location of primary lesions observed in pathological studies.

  Lagrangian tracking of fibrous aerosols for prediction of deposition in human airways,
  European Aerosol Conference 2019, Gothenburg, Sweden, (2019)
  abstrakt
  Tracking of fibres in a fluid represents more complicated problem than tracking of spherical particles. A mathematical model describing fibre motion is presented and its capabilities are demonstrated through simulations of fibre transportation in a channel and a single bifurcation.

  Simulation of Airway Deposition of an Aerosol Drug in COPD Patients, MDPI
  článek v časopise ve Web of Science, Jimp
  Medical aerosols are key elements of current chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) therapy. Therapeutic effects are conditioned by the delivery of the right amount of medication to the right place within the airways, that is, to the drug receptors. Deposition of the inhaled drugs is sensitive to the breathing pattern of the patients which is also connected with the patient's disease severity. The objective of this work was to measure the realistic inhalation profiles of mild, moderate, and severe COPD patients, simulate the deposition patterns of Symbicort((R)) Turbuhaler((R)) dry powder drug and compare them to similar patterns of healthy control subjects. For this purpose, a stochastic airway deposition model has been applied. Our results revealed that the amount of drug depositing within the lungs correlated with the degree of disease severity. While drug deposition fraction in the lungs of mild COPD patients compared with that of healthy subjects (28% versus 31%), lung deposition fraction characteristic of severe COPD patients was lower by a factor of almost two (about 17%). Deposition fraction of moderate COPD patients was in-between (23%). This implies that for the same inhaler dosage severe COPD patients receive a significantly lower lung dose, although, they would need more.

  Deposition of glass fibers in a physically realistic replica of the human respiratory tract, Elsevier SCI LTD
  článek v časopise ve Web of Science, Jimp
  Regional deposition of glass fibers was investigated in a physically realistic, human respiratory tract replica. The replica begins with the oral cavity and includes the airways up to the 7th generation of the tracheobronchial tree. Uniform diameter glass fibers were classified by length using a dielectrophoretic classifier and introduced into the replica at three steady-state flow rates (15, 30, and 50 LPM). A novel automatic image processing method was utilized to speed up the sample analysis and make it more reproducible. Fractional deposition was high in the oral cavity and the upper respiratory airways. Deposition density was higher in the first few generations of the tracheobronchial tree. Deposition efficiencies were compared with published data and good agreement was obtained. Our data confirmed that the deposition efficiency increased with increasing Stokes number indicating that impaction was the main deposition mechanism. The experimental data were used to propose new empirical models predicting fiber deposition in the tracheobronchial tree.

  Experimental methods for flow and aerosol measurements in human airways and their replicas, Elsevier
  článek v časopise ve Web of Science, Jimp
  Recent developments in the prediction of local aerosol deposition in human lungs are driven by the fast development of computational simulations. Although such simulations provide results in unbeatable resolution, significant differences among distinct methods of calculation emphasize the need for highly precise experimental data in order to specify boundary conditions and for validation purposes. This paper reviews and critically evaluates available methods for the measurement of single and disperse two-phase flows for the study of respiratory airflow and deposition of inhaled particles, performed both in vivo and in replicas of airways. Limitations and possibilities associated with the experimental methods are discussed and aspects of the computational calculations that can be validated are indicated. The review classifies the methods into following categories: 1) point-wise and planar methods for velocimetry in the airways, 2) classic methods for the measurement of the regional distribution of inhaled particles, 3) standard medical imaging methods applicable to the measurement of the regional aerosol distribution and 4) emerging and nonconventional methods. All methods are described, applications in human airways studies are illustrated, and recommendations for the most useful applications of each method are given.
