Abstract

This paper employs the higher-order gradient theory to study the elastic and mechanical properties of red blood cell (RBC) membrane using the higher-order Cauchy-Born rule as an atomistic-continuum constitutive model that directly incorporates the microstructure of the spectrin network. The triangul...
