Abstract: A platelet (thrombocyte) can be in two states, activated and inactivated. The paper analyzes the interaction of an inactive platelet cell with the wall of a blood vessel. The goal is to analyze and represent the dynamics of platelet cell interaction when a thrombus has not yet formed. The discrete element method (DEM) can be used for the presented model. The paper presents an analysis of the dependence of force and displacement. This test is an introduction to more advanced tests when a blood clot forms.
