Shape-design for stabilizing micro-particles in inertial microfluidic flows
Aditya Kommajosula, Daniel Stoecklein, Dino Di Carlo +1
Design of microparticles which stabilize at the centerline of a channel flow when part of a dilute suspension is examined numerically for moderate Reynolds numbers ($10 \le Re \le…
Direct Measurement of Particle Inertial Migration in Rectangular Microchannels
Kaitlyn Hood, Soroush Kahkeshani, Dino Di Carlo +1
Particles traveling at high velocities through microfluidic channels migrate from their starting streamlines due to inertial lift forces. Theories predict different scaling laws fo…
Optimization of micropillar sequences for fluid flow sculpting
Daniel Stoecklein, Chueh-Yu Wu, Donghyuk Kim +2
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…
Lateral migration of living cells in inertial microfluidic systems explored by fully three-dimensional numerical simulation
Hongzhi Lan, Soojung Claire Hur, Dino Di Carlo +1
The effects of cell size and deformability on the lateral migration and deformation of living cells flowing through a rectangular microchannel has been numerically investigated and…
Inertially-induced secondary flow in microchannels
Hamed Amini, Mahdokht Masaeli, Dino Di Carlo
We report a novel technique to passively create strong secondary flows at moderate to high flow rates in microchannels, accurately control them and finally, due to their determinis…
