Dynamic response for a network with vessel radii that follow Murray’s law.

A: Real and imaginary parts of the response of the network (in m⁴) as a function of the level n at which obstructions occur. B: Real and imaginary parts of the ratio of two sequential resistances

as a function of the level i of the underlying network. Note that we use the subindex i, whenever we refer to a property of the underlying network, we use the subindex n whenever we refer to the response of the whole network when obstructions occur at level n.
