  • Published:
Mathematical Models and Computer Simulations Aims and scope

Abstract

A numerical method for solving equations of a model for platelet transport in blood plasma flow and platelet clot formation is modified. The full matrix for shear-induced diffusion of the platelets is used. A comparison of a blood clot’s shapes corresponding to various lengths of vessel-wall damage is given.
