A novel mechanism controlling the growth of hemostatic thrombi [PDF]

open access: yesThe Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2013
Current knowledge of the mechanisms of blood coagulation does not provide an answer to one pivotal question: why is, in contrast to a pathological thrombus, the growth of normal hemostatic clot after blood vessel injury suddenly terminated?

A Model for Compression-Weakening Materials and the Elastic Fields due to Contractile Cells [PDF]

open access: yesP. Rosakis, J. Notbohm,G. Ravichandran, A Model for Compression-Weakening Materials and the Elastic Fields due to Contractile Cells, Journal of the Mechanics and Physics of Solids, vol. 85 pp. 16-32 (2015), 2014
We construct a homogeneous, nonlinear elastic constitutive law, that models aspects of the mechanical behavior of inhomogeneous fibrin networks. Fibers in such networks buckle when in compression. We model this as a loss of stiffness in compression in the stress-strain relations of the homogeneous constitutive model.

Multiscale Network Model for Fibrin Fibers and Fibrin Clot with Protofibril Binding Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
The multiscale behavior of the individual fibrin fibers and fibrin clots is modeled by coupling atomistic simulation data and microscopic experimental data. We propose a protofibril element made up of nonlinear spring network, constructed based on the molecular simulation and atomic force microscopy results to simulate the force extension behavior of ...

Foam-like compression behavior of fibrin networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
The rheological properties of fibrin networks have been of long-standing interest. As such there is a wealth of studies of their shear and tensile responses, but their compressive behavior remains unexplored. Here, by characterization of the network structure with synchronous measurement of the fibrin storage and loss moduli at increasing degrees of ...
