A roadmap to the current state of the art in computational cellular mechanicsand biofluiddynamics, this volume provides a comprehensive and rigorous introduction to the fundamental concepts, mathematical formulation, alternative approaches, and predictions of this evolving field. It covers advanced numerical methods for simulating the motion of rigid particles (platelets) and the flow-induced deformation of liquid capsules and cells enclosed by viscoelastic membranes. The book also enables readers to compare solutions produced by different numerical approaches and assess the efficiency of alternative formulations. MATLAB® code and other data are available on the book¿s website.
