Due to the potential impact on the diagnosis and treatment of various cardiovascular
diseases, work on the rheology of blood has significantly expanded in the last decade, both …

A fluid lipid membrane transmits stresses and torques that are fully determined by its
geometry. They can be described by a stress-and torque-tensor, respectively, which yield …

Advances in numerical methods and three-dimensional imaging techniques have enabled
the quantification of cardiovascular mechanics in subject-specific anatomic and physiologic …

This review is devoted to recent developments in blood flow modelling. It begins with the
discussion of blood rheology and its non-Newtonian properties. After that we will present …

Mesoscale simulations of blood flow, where the red blood cells are described as deformable
closed shells with a membrane characterized by bending rigidity and stretching elasticity …

The purpose of this study is mainly directed towards present of viewpoints on critical and
commentary analysis on blood rheology, blood viscosity models, and physiological flow …

The Multiphase Flow Handbook, Second Edition is a thoroughly updated and reorganized
revision of the late Clayton Crowe's work, and provides a detailed look at the basic concepts …

Particle-based methods have been increasingly attractive for solving biofluid flow problems,
because of the ease and flexibility in modeling complex structure fluids afforded by the …

In this paper we develop a lattice Boltzmann algorithm to simulate red blood cell (RBC)
behavior in shear flows. The immersed boundary method is employed to incorporate the …
