Vascular adaptation model from force balance: Physarum polycephalum as a case study

Understanding vascular adaptation, namely what drives veins to shrink or grow, is key for the self-organization of flow networks and their optimization. From the top–down principle of minimizing flow dissipation at a fixed metabolic cost within flow networks, flow shear rate resulting from the flows...
