Wall shear stress variation along the channel walls for the simulation of malaria-infected RBCs with in the 10 m channel. The number ratio of -IRBC to HRBC is 1 : 5. The time instants for simulation are (a) ms, (b) ms, (c) ms, and (d) ms (the time instants correspond to the same time instants in Figure 5).
