Rheology of human blood plasma: viscoelastic versus Newtonian behavior.
We investigate the rheological characteristics of human blood plasma in shear and elongational flows. While we can confirm a Newtonian behavior in shear flow within experimental resolution, we find a viscoelastic behavior of blood plasma in the pure extensional flow of a capillary breakup rheometer. The influence of the viscoelasticity of blood plasma on capillary blood flow is tested in a micr...
متن کاملHomogenized Non-Newtonian Viscoelastic Rheology of a Suspension of Interacting Particles in a Viscous Newtonian Fluid
Our study is motivated by an attempt to develop a rigorous mathematical model of a suspension highly filled with a large number of small solid particles, which interact due to surface forces. We use asymptotic analysis in the small parameter , and consider irregular (nonperiodic) geometries for which the sizes of particles and the distances between them are of order . We present conditions unde...
متن کاملNon-Newtonian Rheology in Blood Circulation
Blood is a complex suspension that demonstrates several non-Newtonian rheological characteristics such as deformation-rate dependency, viscoelasticity and yield stress. In this paper we outline some issues related to the non-Newtonian effects in blood circulation system and present modeling approaches based mostly on the past work in this field.
متن کاملNon-newtonian Rheology of Human Blood--effect of Fibrinogen Deduced by "subtraction".
• Blood has been recognized as a non-Newtonian fluid for many years. Only recently' have the rheological properties of blood been studied under shear rates near zero flow. These studies have suggested that the viscosity of blood increases indefinitely as the shear rate approaches zero. The problem of blood rheology under very low shear rates seemed to us worthy of further investigation, because...
متن کاملEffects of Astaxanthin on Human Blood Rheology
Effects of astaxanthin (AX) derived from H. pluvialis on human blood rheology were investigated in 20 adult men with a single-blind method. The experimental group was 57.5 +/- 9.8 years of age and the placebo group was 50.8 +/- 13.1 years of age. A blood rheology test that measures whole blood transit time was conducted using heparinized blood of the volunteers by a MC-FAN apparatus (microchann...
