Experimental and numerical responses of fibroblast and epithelial cells to the frequency of electric toothbrush.

In the oral environment, fibroblast and gingival epithelial cells undergo distinct forces. Chewing, brushing, or force interactions with dental materials like implants can produce these forces. The behavior and response of these cells to forces are determined by their stiffness.

Relaxation and creep response of the alveolar lung to diagnosis and treatments for respiratory and lung disorders.

Background: The lung Extracellular Matrix (ECM) contains a considerable part of the parenchymal cells. It contains three essential components: elastin and collagen within a proteoglycan (PG) viscoelastic network. Elastin provides the lung's elasticity property, a necessity for normal breathing, while collagen prepares structural support and strength, and PGs give stability and cushioning within tissue loading.

Heat Wave and Bushfire Meteorology in New South Wales, Australia: Air Quality and Health Impacts.

The depletion of air quality is a major problem that is faced around the globe. In Australia, the pollutants emitted by bushfires play an important role in making the air polluted. These pollutants in the air result in many adverse impacts on the environment.

Biomedical and biophysical limits to mathematical modeling of pulmonary system mechanics: a scoping review on aerosol and drug delivery.

Undoubtedly, the construction of the biomechanical geometry systems with the help of computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has made a significant advancement in studying in vitro numerical models as accurately as possible. However, some simplifying assumptions in the computational studies of the respiratory system have caused errors and deviations from the in vivo actual state. The most important of these hypotheses is how to generate volume from the point cloud exported from CT or MRI images, not paying attention to the wall thickness and its effect in computational fluid dynamic method, statistical logic of aerosol trap in software; and most importantly, the viscoelastic effect of respiratory tract wall in living tissue pointed in the fluid-structure interaction method.

Experimental tracking and numerical mapping of novel coronavirus micro-droplet deposition through nasal inhalation in the human respiratory system.

It is essential to study the viral droplet's uptake in the human respiratory system to better control, prevent, and treat diseases. Micro-droplets can easily pass through ordinary respiratory masks. Therefore, the SARS-COV-2 transmit easily in conversation with a regular mask with 'silent spreaders' in the most physiological way of breathing through the nose, indoor and at rest condition.

SARS-CoV-2 droplet deposition path and its effects on the human upper airway in the oral inhalation.

Background And Objective: It is crucial to study the uptake of viral droplets in the human respiratory system to control, prevent, and treat diseases.

Methods: In this study, a well-verified real anatomical model was used; the passage of air in the human upper respiratory system computed using high-quality Computer Tomography (CT) images. Then, the airflow field, along with the coronavirus micro-droplets injection, was examined in this realistic model using the Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) method.

In silico investigation of sneezing in a full real human upper airway using computational fluid dynamics method.

Background And Objective: Sneezing is one of the most critical conditions that can occur in the human upper airway. As some reports confirm the injury to the human upper respiratory airway while sneezing. Therefore, the accurate study of the distribution of pressure and velocity in this case is of great importance.
