Reverse Engineering of Oxygen Transport in the Lung: Adaptation to Changing Demands and Resources through Space-Filling Networks
Figure 5
Computed oxygen currents for alternative architectures.
Currents as a function of W are computed from Eqs. 4 and 5 for different fractal dimensions, Df, at fixed and side length of the gas exchanger (side length of 1/64 acinus, column 5 of Table 2). Other transport parameters in the equations are from Table 1.
