Reaction-diffusion waves of blood coagulation

Abstract: One of the main characteristics of blood coagulation is the speed of clot growth. In the current work we consider a mathematical model of the coagulation cascade and study existence, stability and speed of propagation of the reaction-diffusion waves of blood coagulation. We also develop a simplified one-equation model that reflects the main features of the thrombin wave propagation. For this equation we estimate the wave speed analytically. The resulting formulas provide a good approximation for the speed of w… Show more

“…The speed c 0 for the single equation can be approximated by the narrow reaction zone method and by a piecewise linear approximation [91]. They give a good approximation for the speed of the complete system and of the experimental results ( Figure 3).…”
