Multi-curvature viscous streaming: flow topology and particle manipulation

Yashraj Bhosale, Giridar Vishwanathan, Tejaswin Parthasarathy +2

Viscous streaming refers to the rectified, steady flows that emerge when a liquid oscillates around an immersed microfeature, typically a solid body or a bubble. The ability of suc…

Artificial confocal microscopy for deep label-free imaging

Xi Chen, Mikhail E. Kandel, Shenghua He +8

Widefield microscopy methods applied to optically thick specimens are faced with reduced contrast due to spatial crosstalk, in which the signal at each point is the result of a sup…

Dropping diversity of products of large US firms: Models and measures

Ananthan Nambiar, Tobias Rubel, James McCaull +2

It is widely assumed that in our lifetimes the products available in the global economy have become more diverse. This assumption is difficult to investigate directly, however, bec…

Friction modulation in limbless, three-dimensional gaits and heterogeneous terrains

Xiaotian Zhang, Noel Naughton, Tejaswin Parthasarathy +1

Motivated by a possible convergence of terrestrial limbless locomotion strategies ultimately determined by interfacial effects, we show how both 3D gait alterations and locomotory…

Three-dimensional geometry and topology effects in viscous streaming

Fan Kiat Chan, Yashraj Bhosale, Tejaswin Parthasarathy +1

Recent studies on viscous streaming flows in two dimensions have elucidated the impact of body curvature variations on resulting flow topology and dynamics, with opportunities for…

Novel Inertial Self-Assembly Dynamics and Long-Range Spatial Ordering of Interacting Droplet Ensembles in Confined Microfluidic Flows

Wenyang Jing, Hee-Sun Han

The multiphase flow of droplets is widespread, both at the industrial and the microscale, for both biological and non-biological applications alike. But the ensemble interactions o…

DNA Supercoiling Drives a Transition between Collective Modes of Gene Synthesis

Purba Chatterjee, Nigel Goldenfeld, Sangjin Kim

Recent experiments showed that multiple copies of the molecular machine RNA polymerase (RNAP) can efficiently synthesize mRNA collectively in the active state of the promoter. Howe…

An unrecognized force in inertial microfluidics

Siddhansh Agarwal, Fan Kiat Chan, Mattia Gazzola +1

Describing effects of small but finite inertia on suspended particles is a fundamental fluid dynamical problem that has never been solved in full generality. Modern microfluidics h…
