| Objectives |
This course is designed in a way that the students, after successfully engaging with the topics, will
- be familiar with the fluid mechanics aspects of the human body organs and diseases
- comprehend the physics of fluid flows and the governing equations
- learn the numerical techniques to solve the governing equations
- gain knowledge about modeling approaches for human circulatory and respiratory systems
- be able to run basic practical simulations e.g. blood flow in human arteries and particle deposition in human lung
|
| Subject |
- Introduction to biological fluid flow
- Governing equations of fluid flow and their mathematical properties
- Finite Volume Discretization and its application to the Navier-Stokes equations
- Modelling blood flow with single-phase and multiphase flow approaches
- Modelling particle flow through the respiratory system
