A General Shear-Dependent Model for Thrombus Formation
Fig 9
Blood coagulation and thrombus formation in a venous flow.
(a) Schematic of the simulation setup with the seeded particles (green) placed circumferentially to represent the subendothelial matrix (150 − 200 μm). The hexahedral elements show the structured grid used to solve the N-S and ADR equations. (b) Time course of platelet aggregation density on the injured area at 64 s−1 shear rate.
