Abstract
People from physiology and anatomy think that the human lung is a surface fractal. They like to obtain models from geometry of so-called physiological surface fractals. In the talk we could present some surfaces of this kind. One example is investigated here.
Kurzreferat
Physiologen und Anatomen sind der Meinung, die menschliche Lunge sei ein Flächenfraktal. Sie wollen von der Geometrie Modelle sogenannter physiologischer Flächenfraktale. In dem Vortrag konnten wir etliche Flächen dieser Art vorführen. Ein Beispiel wird hier behandelt.
