THE PHYSIOLOGICAL PRINCIPLE OF MINIMUM WORK APPLIED TO THE ANGLE OF BRANCHING OF ARTERIES

Open access
Murray, Cecil D.·1926·Journal of General Physiology

Abstract

which embodies Poiseuille's law of flow and a term which covers the cost of maintenance of blood volume, p is the fall in pressure in dynes/cm. ~, b is the cost of blood volume in ergs/cc, sec. (considered constant), vol is the volume, r is the radius of the section of artery, and 71 is the viscosity of whole blood (also taken as "constant"). At constant flow, f (that is, for any given steady state), and at constant length of arterial section, l, the total energy, E, is a minimum when:

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
