چکیده مقاله:

The excess accumulation of water in lung interstitial or alveolar is called pulmonary edema which is caused by factors that upset the normal Starling balance in micro-circulation. Pulmonary edema disturbs the alveolar gas exchanges which are normally regulated by the respiratory system. Mathematical modelling of pulmonary edema may help to predict the lung conditions and the mechanisms involved in the formation of edema. With the help of lung anatomy and physiology, the properties of alveolar sheet were determined and the Starling forces were considered during pulmonary filtration. A nonlinear partial differential equation was solved for the blood pressure in alveolar sheet. The mathematical simulation of lymphatic pumps was obtained and the process of fluid accumulation under normal and abnormal conditions was investigated. The results indicate that the rate of edema formation is strongly related to lung blood pressured, serum protein concentration, and reflection coefficient physiological data also confirm the results from this study.

Pulmonary Edema

Pulmonary edema is a common problem in dogs and cats in both the emergency room and the intensive care unit. A good understanding of the physiology of fluid flow through the lungs is of paramount importance for developing techniques for rational patient management. The normal lung consists of a network of capillaries lined with endothelial cells, surrounding airspaces lined with alveolar epithe...

Measurement of Pulmonary Edema

Pulmonary extravascular fluid volume (PEV) has been estimated by using a double isotope technique in nine normal subjects and 45 patients with valvular heart disease. The method was reproducible, the standard deviation being + 15.2 ml/m2, or 11.2% of the mean. Groups of patients with aortic and mitral valve disease had significantly higher values of PEV than normal persons; some patients with p...

MATHEMATICAL MODELLING FOR DICE FINDER GAME PROBLEM

Play is often episodic and mission-centric, with a series of challenges culminating in a final puzzle or enemy that must be overcome. Multiple missions played with the same characters may be related to each other in a plot arc of escalating challenges. The exact tone, structure, pace and end (if any) vary from game to game depending on the needs and preferences of the players, as in [9]. "THE C...

Mathematical modelling of Sisko fluid flow through a stenosed ‎artery

In the present study, the nonlinear model of non-Newtonian blood flow in cosine-shape stenosed elastic artery is numerically examined. The model is carried out for axisymmetric, two-dimensional and fully developed blood flow. The vessel wall is assumed to be have time-dependent radius that is important factor for study of blood flow. The cosine-shape stenosis convert to rigid artery by using a ...
