[Modeling of intraorgan arterial vasculatures. I. A stationary blood flow at low Reynolds numbers].
Based on the statistical relationships between the lengths and diameters of vessels in the arterial beds, obtained by measurements on plastic casts, a method for the generation of models of intraorgan arterial vasculatures was proposed. The dependence of the total hydraulic conductivity of the system on the model parameters was computed. The problem of selecting the adequate models by a comparison of the corresponding biophysical characteristics of vasculatures is discussed.
