Robust Unidirectional Airflow through Avian Lungs: New Insights from a Piecewise Linear Mathematical Model
Avian lungs are remarkably different from mammalian lungs in that air flows unidirectionally through rigid tubes in which gas exchange occurs. Experimental observations have been able to determine the pattern of gas flow in the respiratory system, but understanding how the flow pattern is generated...
