Airflow patterns and particle deposition in a pediatric nasal upper airway following a rapid maxillary expansion: Computational fluid dynamics study

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2023
The airflow behaviour and particle deposition before and after the maxillary expansion are evaluated using the computational fluid dynamics method. A pediatric patient was subjected to maxillary expansion and the CT scans of pre and post were recorded ...

Nasal airflow patterns in a patient with septal deviation and comparison with a healthy nasal cavity using computational fluid dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2022
Background and objective: Causes for nasal airway obstruction (NAO) are many but septum deviation is the most prevalent etiology. A deviated septum affects the airflow dynamics in the human nasal cavity, which in turn affects the physiological functions ...

Addressing Integration Error for Polygonal Finite Elements Through Polynomial Projections: A Patch Test Connection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Polygonal finite elements generally do not pass the patch test as a result of quadrature error in the evaluation of weak form integrals. In this work, we examine the consequences of lack of polynomial consistency and show that it can lead to a ...

A Mesh Deformation Method for CFD-Based Hull form Optimization

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is an effective tool for ship resistance prediction and hull form optimization. A three-dimensional volume mesh is essential for CFD simulation, and mesh generation requires much time and effort.

Penalty Virtual Element Method for the 3D Incompressible Flow on Polyhedron Mesh

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
In this paper, a penalty virtual element method (VEM) on polyhedral mesh for solving the 3D incompressible flow is proposed and analyzed. The remarkable feature of VEM is that it does not require an explicit computation of the trial and test space ...

Geometric Model Checking of Continuous Space [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2022
Topological Spatial Model Checking is a recent paradigm where model checking techniques are developed for the topological interpretation of Modal Logic. The Spatial Logic of Closure Spaces, SLCS, extends Modal Logic with reachability connectives that, in

An Analysis of Finite Element Approximation in Electrical Impedance Tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a finite element analysis of electrical impedance tomography for reconstructing the conductivity distribution from electrode voltage measurements by means of Tikhonov regularization. Two popular choices of the penalty term, i.e., $H^1(\Omega)$-

A Virtual Element Method for elastic and inelastic problems on polytope meshes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present a Virtual Element Method (VEM) for possibly nonlinear elastic and inelastic problems, mainly focusing on a small deformation regime. The numerical scheme is based on a low-order approximation of the displacement field, as well as a suitable ...
