Modeling of the Transport and Exchange of a Gas Species in Lungs With an Asymmetric Branching Pattern. Application to Nitric Oxide

Over the years, various studies have been dedicated to the mathematical modeling of gas transport and exchange in the lungs. Indeed, the access to the distal region of the lungs with direct measurements is limited and, therefore, models are valuable tools to interpret clinical data and to give more...
