Construção Automática de Múltiplas Árvores Circulatórias com Controle de Invasão de Território

ABSTRACT

In this work we propose an algorithm based on the Constrained Constructive Optimization (CCO) method that generates a geometric model of the vascular system structure with n trees, considering fisiological conditions of flow, pressure, and taking into account the minimum intravascular volume while constructing the model. We use this algorithm to generate a geometric model of some vascular system on a convex two-dimensional perfusion domain. The results show that the model replicates morphometric features found in real vascular trees.
