Red blood cell shape transitions and dynamics in time-dependent capillary flows
Steffen M. Recktenwald, Katharina Graessel, Felix M. Maurer +3
The dynamics of single red blood cells (RBCs) determine microvascular blood flow by adapting their shape to the flow conditions in the narrow vessels. In this study, we explore the…
