Modeling of heterogeneous materials and media is a problem of fundamental importance to
a wide class of phenomena and systems, ranging from condensed matter physics, soft …

The cellular detail of blood is an essential factor in its flow, especially in vessels or devices
with size comparable to that of its suspended cells. This article motivates and reviews …

Despite major scientific, medical and technological advances over the last few decades, a
cure for cancer remains elusive. The disease initiation is complex, and including initiation …

Mathematical modeling, analysis and simulation are set to play crucial roles in explaining
tumor behavior, and the uncontrolled growth of cancer cells over multiple time and spatial …

We extend the diffuse interface model developed in Wise et al.(2008) to study nonlinear
tumor growth in 3-D. Extensions include the tracking of multiple viable cell species …

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 …

The mechanism underlying the association between elevated red cell distribution width
(RDW) and poor prognosis in variety of diseases is unknown although many researchers …

Visual Computing for Medicine, Second Edition, offers cutting-edge visualization techniques
and their applications in medical diagnosis, education, and treatment. The book includes …

We present a computational methodology for modeling cellular-scale blood flow in arbitrary
and highly complex geometry. Our approach is based on immersed-boundary methods …

Leukocytes normally marginate toward the vascular wall in large vessels and within the
microvasculature. Reversal of this process, leukocyte demargination, leads to substantial …
