From permeability modelling to particle deposition in human lung : an overview of activities at the Division of Fluid Mechanics, Luleå University of Technology
Modelling of flow through porous media has been a main research track at the Division of Fluid Mechanics at Luleå University of Technology all since the derivation of Gebart's permeability model in 1992. This model for parallel cylinders has gained great attention and has been extended to flow...

Modelling of flow through porous media has been a main research track at the Division of Fluid Mechanics at Luleå University of Technology all since the derivation of Gebart's permeability model in 1992.
