## Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) are an essential component of blood. A method to include the particulate nature of blood is introduced here with the goal of studying circulation in largeβscale realistic vessels. The method uses a combination of the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) to account for t

The membrane of the red blood cell is modeled as a fluid shell which resists bending and changes in area. The differential equations governing the mechanical equilibrium of such a membrane are derived and axisymmetric solutions are obtained numerically.
## Abstract Methods for imaging cellular architecture and ultimately macromolecular complexes and individual proteins, within a cellular environment, are an important goal for cell and molecular biology. Coherent diffractive imaging (CDI) is a method of lensless imaging that can be applied to any i
