Y Yin - 2012 - gradworks.umi.com Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become an attractive tool in understanding the characteristic of air flow in the human lungs. Due to inter-subject variations, subject-specific simulations are essential for understanding structure-function relationship, assessing lung function and ... Cached
