Numerical simulation of the three‐dimensional dynamics of healthy and hardened red blood cells passing through a stenosed microvessel by immersed boundary‐lattice Boltzmann method

Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) infected by a malaria‐like disease can change their membrane stiffness and deformability drastically. The objective of this article is to study the three‐dimensional dynamics of healthy and hardened red blood cells passing through a stenosed microchannel in a Poiseuil...
