  • Title: A mathematical model of the flow of blood cells in fine capillaries.
    Author: Ducharme R, Kapadia P, Dowden J.
    Journal: J Biomech; 1991; 24(5):299-306. PubMed ID: 2050706.
    Abstract:
    A description of the flow of blood cells in the capillary blood vessels is presented. The model employs the lubrication theory approach first suggested by Lighthill (J. Fluid Mech. 34, 113-143, 1968). The work of previous investigators is extended by taking into account a wider range of the elastic deformations which affect the cell.
