Finite-Element Method for the Simulation of Lipid Vesicle/Fluid Interactions in a Quasi–Newtonian Fluid Flow
We present a computational framework for modeling an inextensible single vesicle driven by the Helfrich force in an incompressible, non-Newtonian extracellular Carreau fluid. The vesicle membrane is captured with a level set strategy. The local inextensibility constraint is relaxed by introducing a...
