We propose a numerical approach to study the mechanics of a flowing bubble in a constraint micro channel. Using an open source two phase flow solver (Gerris, gfs.sourceforge.net) we compute solutions of the bubble dynamics (i.e. shape and…
The research fields of microfluidics and soft robotics both involve complex small-scale internal channel networks, embedded within a solid structure. This work examines leveraging viscous peeling as a mechanism to create and activate soft…
Recent X-ray imaging experiments have revealed that multiphase flow through porous media involves transient fluctuations in local occupancy, even under fixed macroscopic steady-state conditions where capillary forces dominate at the pore…
Platinum-water interfaces underpin many electrochemical energy conversion processes. However, despite decades of research, the real-space liquid structure of these interfaces remains elusive. Using three-dimensional atomic force microscopy…
Phase separation of saturated micellar network, as a result of cross-linking of branched micelles is established in mixed solutions of the anionic surfactant sodium laurylethersulfate (SLES) and the zwitterionic cocamidopropyl betaine…
We study the dynamics of a tunable 2D active nematic liquid crystal composed of microtubules and kinesin motors confined to an oil-water interface. Kinesin motors continuously inject mechanical energy into the system through ATP hydrolysis,…
We present an acoustofluidic method based on travelling surface acoustic waves (TSAWs) for the induction of the self-assembly of microparticles inside a microfluidic channel. The particles are trapped above an interdigitated transducer,…
We introduce RapFlow-TTS, a rapid and high-fidelity TTS acoustic model that leverages velocity consistency constraints in flow matching (FM) training. Although ordinary differential equation (ODE)-based TTS generation achieves…
Slug flows are extremely interesting multiphase regime phenomena which frequently occur in flexible marine risers used by the petroleum industry in offshore environments and have both a liquid and gaseous phase. This paper describes two…
Fluidic maldistribution in microscale multichannel devices requires deep understanding to achieve optimized flow and heat transfer characteristics. A thorough computational study has been performed to understand the concentration and…
It is shown that structuring at the microlevel, a previously not described in detail phenomenon, is the intrinsic property of water and aqueous solutions. At room conditions water (including "ultrapure" one) and aqueous solutions are…
Micropumps are one of the most important parts of a microfluidic system. In particular, for biomedical applications such as Lab-on-Chip systems, micropumps are used to transport and manipulate test fluids in a controlled manner. In this…
Inertial fluid flow deformation around pillars in a microchannel is a new method for controlling fluid flow. Sequences of pillars have been shown to produce a rich phase space with a wide variety of flow transformations. Previous work has…
Aerobreakup of fluid droplets under the influence of impulsively generated high-speed gas flow using an open-ended shock tube is studied using experiments and numerical simulations. Breakup of mm-sized droplets at high Weber number was…
One of the most promising applications in nanoscience is the design of new materials to improve water permeability and selectivity of nanoporous membranes. Understanding the molecular architecture behind these fascinating structures and how…
We develop and present a unified multi-scale model (involving three scales of spatial organisation) to study the dynamics of rigid aggregating particles suspended in a viscous fluid medium and subject to a steady poiseuille flow. At…
Molecules at the air-water interface often form inhomogeneous layers in which domains of different densities are separated by sharp interfaces. Complex interfacial pattern formation may occur through the competition of short- and long-range…
Periodic assemblies of nanoparticles are central to surface patterning, with applications in biosensing, energy conversion, and nanofabrication. Evaporation of colloidal droplets on substrates provides a simple yet effective route to…
Molecular-scale interactions between solvated macromolecules and solid surfaces govern a large number of processes, from biology to engineering. Yet, despite extensive characterization at the macroscopic level, our molecular understanding…
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic devices have become a standard tool for engineering cells and multicellular networks in vitro. However, the reservoirs, or through-holes where cells access the devices, are usually fabricated…
