    Formed Elements of the Blood Platelets, and Thrombosis

    The effects of injury in the microcirculation have been studied for about 100 years, initially more or less accidentally. The English ophthalmic surgeon Wharton-Jones (1851) descri~d arteriolar thromboembolism...

    Red Cell Interactions with the Microcirculation

    We have measured RBC velocity profiles for mammalian arterioles and venules from high-speed cinematographic motion pictures. Measurements were made at 320× and 400× optical magnification over an averaging time...

    The flow of a viscous liquid in a converging tube

    The problem of the viscous flow of an incompressible Newtonian liquid in a converging tapered tube has been solved in spherical polar coordinates. The method of the solution involves the Stokes' stream functio...
