With its roots in kinetic theory and the cellular automaton concept, the lattice-Boltzmann (LB)
equation can be used to obtain continuum flow quantities from simple and local update rules …

Fluid mechanics is involved in the growth, progression, metastasis, and therapy of cancer.
Blood vessels transport oxygen and nutrients to cancerous tissues, provide a route for …

The problem of a flapping filament mounted to a free cylinder provides insight into
computational fluid dynamics. We study the extent to which the length of the flexible filament …

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 …

An investigation of margination dependence on hematocrit, platelet shape, and viscosity
ratio of plasma to cytoplasm is presented. Whole blood is modeled as a suspension of …

We developed a simulation scheme based on the coupling of the lattice-Boltzmann method
with the smoothed-profile method (SPM) to predict the dynamic behavior of colloidal …

The direct numerical simulation of particulate systems offers a unique approach to study the
dynamics of fluid-solid suspensions by fully resolving the submerged particles and without …

When a blood vessel ruptures or gets inflamed, the human body responds by rapidly forming
a clot to restrict the loss of blood. Platelets aggregation at the injury site of the blood vessel …

Suspensions with deformable solid inclusions have both scientific and industrial interest.
Examples include microgel particle suspensions, biological fluids, and filled polymers. Due …

The biotransport of the intravascular nanoparticle (NP) is influenced by both the complex
cellular flow environment and the NP characteristics. Being able to computationally simulate …
