Cell-free layer of red blood cells in a constricted microfluidic channel under steady and time-dependent flow conditions
Steffen M. Recktenwald, Katharina Graessel, Yazdan Rashidi +4
Constricted blood vessels in the circulatory system can severely impact the spatiotemporal organization of red blood cells (RBCs) causing various physiological complications. In la…
Frequency-dependent higher-order Stokes singularities near a planar elastic boundary: implications for the hydrodynamics of an active microswimmer near an elastic interface
Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Christina Kurzthaler, Christian Hoell +6
The emerging field of self-driven active particles in fluid environments has recently created significant interest in the biophysics and bioengineering communities owing to their p…
Hydrodynamic coupling and rotational mobilities near planar elastic membranes
Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Maciej Lisicki, Stephan Gekle +2
We study theoretically and numerically the coupling and rotational hydrodynamic interactions between spherical particles near a planar elastic membrane that exhibits resistance tow…
A reciprocal theorem for the prediction of the normal force induced on a particle translating parallel to an elastic membrane
Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Bhargav Rallabandi, Stephan Gekle +1
When an elastic object is dragged through a viscous fluid tangent to a rigid boundary, it experiences a lift force perpendicular to its direction of motion. An analogous lift mecha…
Creeping motion of a solid particle inside a spherical elastic cavity
Abdallah Daddi-Moussa-Ider, Hartmut Löwen, Stephan Gekle
On the basis of the linear hydrodynamic equations, we present an analytical theory for the low-Reynolds-number motion of a solid particle moving inside a larger spherical elastic c…
3D tomography of cells in micro-channels
S. Quint, A. F. Christ, A. Guckenberger +4
We combine confocal imaging, microfluidics and image analysis to record 3D-images of cells in flow. This enables us to recover the full 3D representation of several hundred living…
