Inertio-viscous interactions between particles in oscillatory flow
Xiaokang Zhang, Bhargav Rallabandi
We study the interaction between a pair of particles suspended in a uniform oscillatory flow. The time-averaged behavior of particles under these conditions, driven by inertial and…
Size-dependent particle migration and trapping in 3D microbubble streaming flows
Andreas Volk, Massimiliano Rossi, Bhargav Rallabandi +3
Acoustically actuated sessile bubbles can be used as a tool to manipulate microparticles, vesicles and cells. In this work, using acoustically actuated sessile semi-cylindrical mic…
Representative subsampling of sedimenting blood
Bhargav Rallabandi, Janine K. Nunes, Antonio Perazzo +2
It is often necessary to extract a small amount of a suspension, such as blood, from a larger sample of the same material for the purposes of diagnostics, testing or imaging. A pra…
Motion of hydrodynamically interacting active particles
Bhargav Rallabandi, Fan Yang, Howard A. Stone
We develop a general hydrodynamic theory describing a system of interacting actively propelling particles of arbitrary shape suspended in a viscous fluid. We model the active part…
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…
Three-dimensional phenomena in microbubble acoustic streaming
Alvaro Marin, Massimiliano Rossi, Bhargav Rallabandi +3
Ultrasound-driven oscillating micro-bubbles have been used as active actuators in microfluidic devices to perform manifold tasks such as mixing, sorting and manipulation of micropa…
