Simulation of Platelet Aggregation in the Presence of Red Blood Cells [50 seconds]
Simulation of platelet aggregation in the presence of red blood cells. The red cells are modeled as large rigid spheres, shown in white. The activated platelets are shown in red, the triggered platelets are shown in green, and the passive platelets are shown in blue.
This research was funded by the National Science Foundation, as part of the Interagency Modeling and Analysis Group’s (IMAG) Multiscale Modeling Initiative.
