Shear flow dynamics in blood rheology is a critical area of research that investigates how varying flow stresses affect the deformation, aggregation, and distribution of blood cells. At its core, this ...

The destruction of red blood cells, or mechanical hemolysis, is an inevitable complication of interventional devices, so scientists want to gain a better understanding of the phenomenon. Researchers ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We consider the Beris-Edwards model describing nematic liquid crystal dynamics and restrict it to a shear flow and spatially homogeneous ...

Plastics are widely used polymeric materials employed in a diverse array of applications and across a wide range of popular consumer products. Polymers used in the production of plastics are typically ...

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1, 2022 – Many medical devices for treating heart failure generate nonphysiological shear flow. This can trigger the destruction of red blood cells after implantation of ventricular ...
