3D patient-specific numerical modeling of the soft palate considering adhesion from the tongue
Liu, Hongliang; Prot, Victorien Emile; Skallerud, Bjørn Helge (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Collapse of the soft palate in the upper airway contributes to obstructive sleeping apnea (OSA). In this study, we investigate the influence of the adhesion from the tongue on the soft palate global response. This is ... -
Modeling and simulation of the soft palate for improved understanding of the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
Liu, Hongliang (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:101, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) influences a large part of the population and is increasingly recognized as a major global health problem. For OSA patients, the collapse of the soft palate has been clarified to be a common ... -
Palatal implant surgery effectiveness in treatment of obstructive sleep apnea: a numerical method with 3D patient-specific geometries
Liu, Hongliang; Moxness, Mads Henrik Strand; Prot, Victorien Emile; Skallerud, Bjørn Helge (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects a large percentage of the population and is increasingly recognized as a major global health problem. One surgical procedure for OSA is to implant polyethylene (PET) material into the ...
