Developing a Roadmap for Whole Lung Modeling and Some of the Required Software, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Saeedi, Mohammad Saeed (Supervisor)
Abstract
In this work, a new methodology for modeling the whole lung using porous media is presented. Dealing with the details of the proposed method establishes the need for some tools. Proposed method combines data extraction from lung images to identify large airways, porosity and porous region boundaries. Combining some sequential images, change in properties with time could be obtained. To obtain behavior of this porous media with respect to flow, a method based on the classification of bifurcations and gas exchange areas and pore scale modeling of these classes is proposed. All these require a specifically designed numerical tool. Development of this tool is the subject of the next parts of...
