A Potential Elastohydrodynamic Origin of Load-Support and Coulomb-Like Friction in Lung/Chest Wall Lubrication
{{output}}
BACKGROUND: During normal breathing, the mesothelial surfaces of the lung and chest wall slide relative to one another. Experimentally, the shear stresses induced by such reciprocal sliding motion are very small, consistent with hydrodynamic lubrication, and r... ...
