Computational Fluid Dynamic Analysis of Fluid Motion and Volumetric Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer in Agitated Platelet Concentrate Storage. [PDF]
Biotechnol JGraphical Abstract and Lay Summary Platelets (PLTs) are small blood cells that play a vital role in stopping bleeding. After donation, they are stored in special bags, but their quality decreases over time. One reason for this decline is the mechanical stress they experience during collection, processing, and storage.

Volume of Fluid (VOF) type advection methods in two-phase flow: A comparative study [PDF]
Computers & Fluids, 2014 In this paper, four distinct approaches to Volume of Fluid (VOF) computational method are compared. Two of the methods are the 'simplified' VOF formulations, in that they do not require geometrical interface reconstruction. The assessment is made possible by implementing all four approaches into the same code as a switchable options.
