The book presents an integrated experimental-computational approach to explore microbubble-induced injuries during mechanical ventilation in patients with Acute Lung Injury and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. It features a computational model that captures complex dynamics like fluid-structure interaction, validated against experimental data. Key concepts include cellular engineering, biomechanics, and multi-scale modeling. This resource aims to inform researchers about advanced analytical techniques and simulation methods relevant to respiratory system flow dynamics.

Using the well-honed tools of nanotechnology, this book presents breakthrough results in soft matter research, benefitting from the synergies between the chemistry, physics, biology, materials science, and engineering communities. The team of international authors delves beyond mere structure-making and places the emphasis firmly on imparting functionality to soft nanomaterials with a focus on devices and applications. Alongside reviewing the current level of knowledge, they also put forward novel ideas to foster research and development in such expanding fields as nanobiotechnology and nanomedicine. As such, the book covers DNA-induced nanoparticle assembly, nanostructured substrates for circulating tumor cell capturing, and organic nano field effect transistors, as well as advanced dynamic gels and self-healing electronic nanodevices. With its interdisciplinary approach this book gives readers a complete picture of nanotechnology with soft matter.
