Red Blood Cell Aggregation Characterization: Quantification and Modeling Implications of Red Blood Cell Aggregation at Low Shear Rates
Red blood cells (RBCs) are the most abundant cells in human blood, representing 40 to 45% of the blood volume (hematocrit). These cells have the particular ability to deform and bridge together to form aggregates under very low shear rates. The theory and mechanics behind aggregation are, however, …

Rheological Aspect of Cell-Free Layer Formation in Micro-blood Flow: Experimental and Numerical Study
… detailed insight into the rheological aspects of cell-free layer (CFL) formation in micro-blood flow and its relation to red blood cell (RBC) aggregation. Both experimental and computational approaches were utilized in characterizing the relationship between the CFL width change and RBC …
