Theory and simulation of elastoinertial rectification of oscillatory flows in two-dimensional deformable rectangular channels
Uday M. Rade, Shrihari D. Pande, Ivan C. Christov
Oscillatory flows in compliant confinements underpin processes ranging from physiological transport in blood vessels and airways to flow control and pumping in soft microfluidic de…
Reciprocal theorem for calculating the flow rate of oscillatory channel flows
Shrihari D. Pande, Evgeniy Boyko, Ivan C. Christov
We demonstrate the use of the Lorentz reciprocal theorem in obtaining corrections to the steady flow rate due to flow oscillations in rigid channels. Starting from the unsteady Sto…
Oscillatory flows in three-dimensional deformable microchannels
Anxu Huang, Shrihari D. Pande, Jie Feng +1
Deformable microchannels emulate a key characteristic of soft biological systems and flexible engineering devices: the flow-induced deformation of the conduit due to slow viscous f…
Pressure drop reduction due to coupling between shear-thinning fluid flow and a weakly deformable channel wall: A reciprocal theorem approach
Shrihari D. Pande, Ivan C. Christov
We employ the Lorentz reciprocal theorem to derive a closed-form expression for the pressure drop reduction due to the coupling between shear-thinning fluid flow and a weakly defor…
