RBCFlowInRigidTube.m: Red blood cell motion and deformation inside of a rigid tube with varying cross-section.

  • This code was developed for part of my dissertation to simulate red blood cell flow using boundary integral methods.
  • This repository contains the code for the examples presented in Chapter 6 for simulating the red blood cell motion and deformation in a microcapillary with constriction.
