The role of vascular complexity on optimal junction exponents

Abstract We examine the role of complexity on arterial tree structures, determining globally optimal vessel arrangements using the Simulated AnneaLing Vascular Optimization algorithm, a computational method which we have previously used to reproduce features of cardiac and cerebral vasculatures. In...
