Biomechanical response is often influenced by the geometry (shape) of a system. Numerical techniques such as the finite element (FE) method offer the possibility of incorporating geometric details of a system into a mathematical model with a greater level of detail than is generally achievable with purely analytical models. In this vein, FE models of biological structures tend to fall into two broad categories: generic models and specimen-specific models. Generic models are attractive because the geometric features of interest may be cast as variable parameters that simplify analysis of factor influence, but may be limited in what can be predicted about a specific specimen. In contrast, specimen-specific models may contain a high level of geometric detail, but analysis of the influence of geometry can be more complicated.

This paper extends to the field of convective heat transfer the constructal theory of optimizing the access of a current that flows between one point and a finite-size volume, when the volume size is constrained. The volume is bathed by a uniform stream. A small amount of high-conductivity fin material is distributed optimally through the volume, and makes the connection between the volume and one point (fin root) on its boundary. The optimization proceeds in a series of volume subsystems of increasing sizes (elemental volume, first construct, second construct). The shape of the volume and the relative thicknesses of the fins are optimized at each level of assembly. The optimized structure emerges as a tree of fins in which every geometric detail is a result of minimizing the thermal resistance between the finite-size volume and the root point (source, sink). Convection occurs in the interstitial spaces of the tree. The paper shows that several of the geometric details of the optimized structure are robust, i.e., relatively insensitive to changes in other design parameters. The paper concludes with a discussion of constructal theory and the relevance of the optimized tree structures to predicting natural self-organization and self-optimization.
