Predicting cardiac frequencies in mammals
Abstract We develop a fluid mechanical model of the arterial tree in order to address the key question of what determines heart rate in mammals. We propose that the frequency of the pulsatile pressure gradient, which minimizes resistance to flow and facilitates fluid movement, coincides with the phy...
