Shear flow dynamics in blood rheology is a critical area of research that investigates how varying flow stresses affect the deformation, aggregation, and distribution of blood cells. At its core, this ...

The destruction of red blood cells, or mechanical hemolysis, is an inevitable complication of interventional devices, so scientists want to gain a better understanding of the phenomenon. Researchers ...

Shear flow dynamics play a crucial role in determining the microstructural evolution and mechanical stability of colloidal aggregates. Under an imposed shear, the interplay between hydrodynamic forces ...

Researchers at the University of Tokyo report that two-body structural entropy is the key quantity to understanding the dynamics of sheared supercooled liquids and also the mechanism behind the ...

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1, 2022 – Many medical devices for treating heart failure generate nonphysiological shear flow. This can trigger the destruction of red blood cells after implantation of ventricular ...
