Stably stratified turbulence in the presence of large-scale forcing
C. Rorai, P. D. Mininni, A. Pouquet
We perform two high resolution direct numerical simulations of stratified turbulence for Reynolds number equal to Re~25000 and Froude number respectively of Fr~0.1 and Fr~0.03. The…
Motion of an elastic capsule in a constricted microchannel
Cecilia Rorai, Antoine Touchard, Lailai Zhu +1
We study the motion of an elastic capsule through a microchannel characterized by a localized constriction. We consider a capsule with a stress-free spherical shape and impose its…
A microfluidic device to sort capsules by deformability: A numerical study
Lailai Zhu, Cecilia Rorai, Dhrubaditya Mitra +1
Guided by extensive numerical simulations, we propose a microfluidic device that can sort elastic capsules by their deformability. The device consists of a duct embedded with a sem…
