Abstract

This paper presents selected numerical results obtained using a macroscopic blood coagulation model coupled with a non-linear viscoelastic model for blood flow. The governing system is solved using a central finitevolume scheme employing an explicit Runge-Kutta time-integration. An artificial compressibility method is used to resolve the pressure. A non-linear TVD filter is applied for stabilization. A simple test case of blood flow over a clotting surface in a straight 3D vessel is solved. This work merges and significantly extends our previous studies (Bodnár and Sequeira, 2008) and (Bodnár et al., 2011a).
