Abstract
Abstract Microcirculatory blood flow exhibits complex non-Newtonian behavior, including shear-thinning properties and the formation of a cell-free layer (CFL)—a plasma-rich region near vessel walls. While traditional rheological models such as Newtonian, Power Law, and Carreau describe certain flow characteristics, and empirical models like the double-parameter power fit have been used to capture velocity profiles, these approaches fall short in fully characterizing the dynamic interplay between red blood cells (RBCs) and plasma. This study introduces the Core-Plasma Model, a two-phase framework that integrates Newtonian and non-Newtonian elements to represent the RBC-rich core and surrounding CFL. In vitro experiments in 25 µ m and 50 µ m round channels across varying flow rates, hematocrit levels (5–20%), and suspending media (PBS and native plasma) demonstrate the model’s superior ability to capture velocity and shear rate profiles. The Core-Plasma Model offers a robust platform for advancing microscale hemodynamic predictions and deepening the understanding of microvascular flow dynamics.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
