This paper proposes different levels of modeling around the notion of resistance: from the single parameter that is commonly measured in medical practice, to more sophisticated settings that account for the geometrical characteristics of the respiratory tract.
Résumé
Cet article propose différents niveaux de modélisation permettant de donner un sens à la notion de résistance de l’arbre bronchique : de l’approche macroscopique qui définit cette résistance comme un nombre unique, mesurable, permettant de quantifier les effets résistifs, à des cadres formels plus sophistiqués prenant en compte les multiples paramètres géométriques intervenant dans ces phénomènes dissipatifs.
