title: [A biomechanical model of lymph formation].
abstract: In this study we analysed the interactions between initial lymphatic and interstitium, examined the procedure of lymph formation, developed the interaction theory for lymph formation, and showed that not only interstitial fluid prssure but also normal stress of interstitial solid phase should be considered and that lymph flow rate is greatly affected by interstitial porosity.
