Large-Amplitude Oscillations of a Finite-Thickness Cantilevered Flexible Plate in Viscous Channel Flow
The broad aim of the present work is to elucidate mechanisms of obstructive breathing disorders (snoring, sleep apnea) in which flow-induced instabilities of the soft palate feature. We use the well-established analogue system model wherein a two-dimensional flexible plate (soft palate) is mounted d...
