A slender two-dimensional (2D) channel bounded by a rigid bottom surface and a slender elastic layer above deforms when a fluid flows through it. Hydrodynamic forces cause deformation at the fluid--solid interface, which in turn changes the…

A well-developed method to induce mixing on microscopic scales is to exploit flows generated by steady streaming. Steady streaming is a classical fluid dynamics phenomenon whereby a time-periodic forcing in the bulk or along a boundary is…
