Droplet Breakup Against an Isolated Obstacle
David J. Meer, Shivnag Sista, Mark D. Shattuck +2
We describe combined experiments and simulations of droplet breakup during flow-driven interactions with a circular obstacle in a quasi-two-dimensional microfluidic chamber. Due to…

Flow and clogging of capillary droplets
Yuxuan Cheng, Benjamin F. Lonial, Shivnag Sista +5
Capillary droplets form due to surface tension when two immiscible fluids are mixed. We describe the motion of gravity-driven capillary droplets flowing through narrow constriction…
