Membrane viscosity values

[mojtabaAmiraslanpour]

Hi,

I see that the suggested value for membrane viscosity (eta_m) in Hemocell is 5e-10 Ns/m. I cannot justify this with the values I see in the literature which are in the order of around 1e-6 Pa.s and in some others around 0.022 Pa.s. Clearly, a wide range of this value is reported. However, I am not able to set this value to anything larger. It would cause instabilities in the simulation. Is this numerical capability to handle correct membrane viscosity values not yet fully considered in HemoCell or am I missing something here?

Thank you.
