On the Stability of Lung Parenchymal Lesions with Applications to Early Pneumothorax Diagnosis

Figure 3

Stretch factor 𝜆(𝑡) for different stiffness constant (𝑐₂). This figure shows three plots of stretch factor with respect to dimensionless time for the stiffness constants 𝑐₂=1.00,1.26,and1.52. Variations in the stiffness constant clearly affect the amplitude and frequency of oscillations.
