Body segment	${\dot{m}}_{\mathit{s}\mathit{k},0}$, c m 3/s	${\dot{m}}_{\mathit{s}\mathit{k},\mathit{m}\mathit{a}\mathit{x}}$, c m 3/s	${\dot{m}}_{\mathit{s}\mathit{k},\mathit{m}\mathit{i}\mathit{n}}$, c m 3/s
Head/neck	1.681	1.255	4.598
Thorax (chest)/shoulder	0.956	0.0	9.235
Abdomen (pelvis)	0.631	0.0	6.098
Arm	0.253	0.0	2.311
Forearm	0.141	0.0	1.543
Thigh	0.404	0.0	3.459
Leg (calf)	0.181	0.0	2.293

^aSuch parameters are obtained by readapting the values from the work by Fu et al91 for the current body solid architecture. It is important to note that the coefficients for the neck and shoulder are assumed to be equal to the coefficients for the head and thorax, respectively.
