Abstract:
The homeland security community requires a unique solution to the challenges of studying exposure to aerosol-based contaminants. The goal of this work is to create a comprehensive computational, morphologically-realistic model of the human respiratory system that can be used to study the inhalation, deposition, and clearance of contaminants, while making the model adaptable for age, race, sex, and health.
