Lattice Boltzmann simulation of motion of red blood cell in constricted circular pipe flow

The lattice Boltzmann method for two-phase flows containing a deformable body with a viscoelastic membrane is improved to simulate circular pipe flows by incorporation of the immersed boundary method. In order to examine the validity of the red blood cell (RBC) model, the method is applied to the mo...
