Figure 5

The pressure peaks at the posterior, lateral, interior and underside of the lung surface (40 cm). The interior and underside of the lung surface have higher levels of von Mises pressures. The apex pulmonis has the lowest shear stress. Blocking effect can be observed. Warm color represents high pressure area, cool color represents low pressure area(40–80 cm). Maximum pressure was 10231 Pa.
