Fundamentals and Applications of Fluid Mechanics and Acoustics in Biomedical Engineering

The field of biomedical engineering has experienced important advances in experimental, computational, and analytical research in fluid mechanics and acoustics. New imaging modalities, advanced instrumentation, and efficient computational methodologies have enabled these advances. Computational tools are leveraging progress in modern engineering techniques and mathematical tools. The findings contribute to a better understanding of physiological processes in the circulatory and respiratory systems, as well as phonation, and have already led to new therapies. These transformative achievements include the early diagnosis of diseases, the monitoring of their progression, individualized interventions, surgical planning, effective drug delivery, and new medical devices.Synergy between computational tools and experimental diagnostics is important for the development of both approaches. Accurate experimental data are crucial for the validation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to obtain reliable results. CFD can help in designing the experimental setup and to provide a deeper understanding of experimental results, adding information that cannot be measured.
