On quasi-steady laminar flow separation in the upper airways

Accurate prediction of the position of flow separation along a constriction is important to model fluid-structure interaction phenomena in the upper airways such as phonation and obstructive sleep apnea. Flow assumptions underlying common flow descriptions along the upper airways are formulated. Flo...
