Numerical Study of Particle Margination in a Square Channel Flow with Red Blood Cells
Red blood cells flow near the axis in a small vessel, known as axial accumulation. This causes a region called the cell-free layer, which does not contain red blood cells near the wall. Then, small particles such as platelets come out to the cell-free layer. This phenomenon is called platelet margin...
