Figure 8.

State diagram of deformable cancer cell adhesion to the endothelium as a function of capillary number, Ca, and dissociation number, Kr. (a) Vessel diameter is 8.82   $\mu \text{m}$ and shear rate is $312{\text{s}}^{-1}$. (b) Vessel diameter is 8.84   $\mu \text{m}$ and shear rate is $35{\text{s}}^{-1}$. Closed squares represent rolling-adhesion state, open squares show the detachment state, closed circles represent the firm-adhesion state.
