Water and heat exchanges in mammalian lungs
Benoit Haut, Cyril Karamaoun, Benjamin Mauroy +1
A secondary function of the mammals' respiratory system is during inspiration to heat the air to body temperature and to saturate it with water before it reaches the alveoli. Relyi…
Curvature-driven transport of thin Bingham fluid layers in airway bifurcations
Cyril Karamaoun, Haribalan Kumar, Médéric Argentina +2
The mucus on the bronchial wall forms a thin layer of non-Newtonian fluid. One of the roles of mucus is to protect the lungs by capturing inhaled pollutants. It is transported by m…
The origin of the allometric scaling of lung ventilation in mammals
Frédérique Noël, Cyril Karamaoun, Jerome A. Dempsey +1
A model of optimal control of ventilation has recently been developed for humans. This model highlights the importance of the localization of the transition between a convective an…
Allometric scaling of heat and water exchanges in the mammals' lung
Benjamin Sobac, Cyril Karamaoun, Benoit Haut +1
Mammals have a high metabolism that produces heat proportionally to the power 3/4 of their mass at rest. Any excess of heat has to be dissipated in the surrounding environment to p…
A new role for exhaled nitric oxide as a functional marker of peripheral airway caliber changes: a theoretical study
Cyril Karamaoun, Benoît Haut, Alain Van Muylem
Though considered as an inflammation marker, exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) was shown to be sensitive to airway caliber changes to such an extent that it might be considered as a mark…
