Computational fluid dynamics modeling of aerosol particle transport through lung airway mucosa✩,✩✩

Delivery of aerosols to the lung can treat various lung diseases. However, the conducting airways are coated by a protective mucus layer with complex properties that make this form of delivery difficult. Mucus is a non-Newtonian fluid and is cleared from the lungs over time by ciliated cells. Furthe...
