  • Title: Characteristic recovery time of an erythrocyte from an extensional deformation.
    Author: Lucero JC.
    Journal: J Biomech Eng; 1993 May; 115(2):206-7. PubMed ID: 8326729.
    Abstract:
    An analytical expression for the characteristic recovery time of an erythrocyte subject to an extensional deformation is derived using a previous nonlinear Kelvin-Voigt model. The recovery time thus obtained depends on the initial deformation in agreement with experimental observations, as a result of the nonlinearity of the model. The validity of the analytical results is confirmed using previous experimental data.
