Effects of Surface Tension and Yield Stress on Mucus Plug Rupture: A Numerical Study

We study the effects of surface tension and yield stress on mucus plug rupture. A three-dimensional simplified configuration is employed to simulate mucus plug rupture in a collapsed lung airway of the tenth generation. The Herschel–Bulkley model is used to take into account the non-Newtonian viscop...
