Measures of thrombosis for different models of shear-induced platelet activation including critical-shear model (top vessel, white bars), shear-history model with β = 40 (middle vessel, gray bars), and shear-history model with β = 60 (bottom vessel, black bars). (a) Thrombus formation showing activated platelets (solid circles), unactivated platelets (open circles), and boundaries that separate convex and concave walls (dashed lines). (b) Measures of thrombosis, including activation count, mural thrombus size, and wall contact. (c) Mural thrombus density on specified walls, for which wall boundaries are marked in (a). Platelets had normal MPV and MPD, and were subjected to collision, aggregation, and adhesion. Tortuosity index is T = 0.21, and time is tf = 1.7 s.
