Micro-PIV and CFD studies show non-uniform wall shear stress distributions over endothelial cells
Wall shear stress acting on arterial walls is an important hemodynamic force determining vessel health. A parallel-plate flow chamber with a 127 µm-thick flow channel is used as an in vitro system to study the fluid mechanics environment. It is essential to know how well this flow chamber performs i...
