Parallel Simulation of Cellular Flow in Microvessels Using a Particle Method

We developed a numerical method for large-scale simulations of cellular flow in microvessels. We employed a particle method, where all blood components were modeled using a finite number of particles. Red blood cell deformation was modeled by a spring network of membrane particles. A domain decompos...
