Combined computational modeling and experimental study of the biomechanical mechanisms of platelet-driven contraction of fibrin clots
Abstract While blood clot formation has been relatively well studied, little is known about the mechanisms underlying the subsequent structural and mechanical clot remodeling called contraction or retraction. Impairment of the clot contraction process is associated with both life-threatening bleedin...
