Description for Computer Simulation Study of Collective Phenomena in Dense Suspensions of Red Blood Cells Under Shear
Paperback. The rheology of dense red blood cell suspensions is investigated via computer simulations based on the lattice Boltzmann, and the finite element methods. The red blood cells are treated as extended and deformable particles immersed in the ambient fluid. In this title, first part discusses the numerical model and strategies for stress evaluation. Editor(s): Kruger, Heinrich. Num Pages: 165 pages, 7 black & white tables. BIC Classification: MBGR; PSF; UYM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 240 x 168 x 10. Weight in Grams: 312.
The rheology of dense red blood cell suspensions is investigated via computer simulations based on the lattice Boltzmann, the immersed boundary, and the finite element methods. The red blood cells are treated as extended and deformable particles immersed in the ambient fluid. In the first part of the work, the numerical model and strategies for stress evaluation are discussed. In the second part, the behavior of the suspensions in simple shear flow is studied for different volume fractions, particle deformabilities, and shear rates. Shear thinning behavior is recovered. The existence of a shear-induced transition from a tumbling to a tank-treading ... Read more
