Figure 3.

Time series of RBC pathways (a–f), cases 1 to 6, respectively, and experimental and theoretical comparison of the secondary acoustic force while RBCs pass by a fixed 20 µm silica particle based on the extended Gröschl model (g–l). Standard deviations of the residuals were shown for each case (root mean square error, RMSE). In (c,e), the pressure nodal line is outside of the picture. In (f) the channel wall is outside of picture. The center of the fixed silica particle in (g,i) is located at 65 µm, in (h,j,l) at 20 µm, and (k) at 128 µm from the pressure nodal line (the latter set to y = 0).
