Abstract:
Based on the principle of minimum power, a mathematical model of the exercise functional state of the oxygen transport system is presented. Aerobic and anaerobic muscular efficiencies are considered. The energetically optimal arteriovenous oxygen content difference, cardiac output and ventilation during exercise in man are determined depending on mechanical power. Theoretical results are compared with experimental data.
