Analytical theory of oxygen transfer in the human placenta
A. S. Serov, C. Salafia, M. Filoche +1
We propose an analytical approach to solving the diffusion-convection equations governing oxygen transport in the human placenta. We show that only two geometrical characteristics…

Optimal villi density for maximal oxygen uptake in the human placenta
A. S. Serov, C. Salafia, P. Brownbill +2
We present a stream-tube model of oxygen exchange inside a human placenta functional unit (a placentone). The effect of villi density on oxygen transfer efficiency is assessed by n…
