Abstract
The width and curvature of the collagen and elastin fiber bundles in the human pulmonary interalveolar septa and alveolar mouths are measured. The data, together with the known mechanical properties of collagen and elastin fibers, are used to deriveThis publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
