The Finite Element Simulation of the Upper Airway of Patients with Moderate and Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the snoring modes of patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome and to discover the main sources of snoring in soft tissue vibrations. METHODS: A three-dimensional finite element model was developed with SolidEdge to simulate the human upper airway. The inhere...
