This article describes the creation of an agent-based model of blood coagulation within the Lindsay Composer (LC) computational framework, which can be used to simulate and visualize physiological processes inside the human body. Swarm Graph Grammars (SGG), a generic modelling language, are used to design the interaction behaviours of the involved bio- agents which represent the cellular and chemical structures found in human blood. Physical interactions among the agents, such as collisions and binding, are computed by an embedded physics engine. In order to effectively retrace and to accurately model coagulation, comparisons with the results of established mathematical models are drawn. The blood coagulation simu- lation accounts for the formation, expression, and propagation of blood clots within the injured area of a blood vessel. We demonstrate how 3-dimensional, interactive agent-based models and programming frameworks provide complementary tools for research, for learning and for exploring the complicated nature of physiological processes.
