E-199 Extension of the principle of minimum work to three dimensions and an arbitrary number of branches

Abstract

E-199 Figure 1 A) Illustrated definition of variables on a mathematical diagram and application to a 3D vascular model. 1 , j , and n are the angles between the extended vector of the parent vessel 0 and the vectors of vessels 1, j, and n. 1,j and j,n are the angles between the vectors of vessels 1 and j and vessels j and n, respectively. For clarity, 1,n is not shown. B) Generalized principle of minimum work Abstracts
