Fluid flow in the sarcomere

Sage A Malingen, Kaitlyn Hood, Eric Lauga +2

A highly organized and densely packed lattice of molecular machinery within the sarcomeres of muscle cells powers contraction. Although many of the proteins that drive contraction…

Marine crustaceans with hairy appendages: role of hydrodynamic boundary layers in sensing and feeding

Kaitlyn Hood, M. S. Suryateja Jammalamadaka, A. E. Hosoi

Decapod crustaceans have appendages with an array of rigid hairs covered in chemo-receptors, used to sense and track food. Crustaceans directly influence the flow behavior by chang…

Pairwise interactions in inertially-driven one-dimensional microfluidic crystals

Kaitlyn Hood, Marcus Roper

In microfluidic devices, inertia drives particles to focus on a finite number of inertial focusing streamlines. Particles on the same streamline interact to form one-dimensional mi…

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…

Inertial migration of a rigid sphere in three-dimensional Poiseuille flow

Kaitlyn Hood, Sungyon Lee, Marcus Roper

Inertial lift forces are exploited within inertial microfluidic devices to position, segregate, and sort particles or droplets. However the forces and their focusing positions can…
