Evaluation of the influence of the nasal cavity in flow simulations of the upper airway of a sleep apnea patient
Computational fluid dynamics can be used to analyze the flow pattern and the anatomical predisposition of the airway collapse in patient-specific simulations of sleep apnea patients. Especially the nasal geometry is a major challenge, because of the complex structures and high calculation effort. Du...
