Eighth International Conference on Information Visualisation (IV'04) Lung Mesh Generation to Simulate Breathing Motion with a Finite Element Method London, England July 14-July 16 ISBN: 0-7695-2177-0
Numerical modelling of lung behaviour during the respiration cycle is a difficult challenge due to its complex geometry and surrounding environment constraints.This paper presents an approach to simulate a patient's lung motion during inhaling and exhaling based on a continuous media mechanics model and solved with a finite element method.One of the key problems is an adequate lung mesh generation, which is specifically developed in this paper.
