Abstract
The fluid dynamics video that is presented here outlines recent advances in the simulation of multiphase cellular blood flow through the direct numerical simulations of deformable red blood cells (RBCs) demonstrated through several numerical experiments. Videos show particle deformation, shear stress on the particle surface, and the formation of particle clusters in both Hagen-Poiseuille and shear flow.
