SPH-DEM approach to numerically simulate the deformation of three-dimensional RBCs in non-uniform capillaries
BACKGROUND: Blood continuously flows through the blood vessels in the human body. When blood flows through the smallest blood vessels, red blood cells (RBCs) in the blood exhibit various types of motion and deformed shapes. Computational modelling techniques can be used to successfully predict the b...
