PNAS NEXUS, 2(8).
author keywords: invariance; flow reversal; thermal regulation; vascular systems; biomimicry
TL;DR:
A counter-intuitive yet fundamental property of vascular-based fluid-flow-engendered thermal regulation is revealed, which offers an innovative way to verify computer codes, especially when analytical solutions are unavailable for intricate domain and vascular configurations.
