Mechanical biomarkers associated with cytoskeletal structures have been reported as
powerful label‐free cell state identifiers. In order to measure cell mechanical properties …

Microfluidic experiments and discrete particle simulations using the lattice-Boltzmann
method are used to study interactions of finite size hard spheres and vortical flow inside …

A common element in physiological flow networks, as well as most domestic and industrial
piping systems, is a T junction that splits the flow into two nearly symmetric streams. It is …

Slurry erosion is responsible for major failures in oil and gas transmission pipelines. In this
study, slurry erosion behavior of AISI 1018, AISI 1080, API X80, API X100 and API X120 is …

Single-particle trapping mechanisms into microcavities are still puzzling for size-based
particle/cell sorting in microfluidics. Aiming to verify the prediction of particle-wall collision …

Aerosol and pollutants, in form of particulates 5–8 μm in main size face every day our
respiratory system as natural suspension in air or forced to be inhaled as a coadjutant in a …

The motion of a neutrally buoyant spherical particle along the axis of an axisymmetric
stagnation point flow at a rigid and smooth flat wall (Hiemenz–Homann flow) is investigated …

The laminar and transitional flow through a planar sudden expansion with various
expansion ratios is studied using two-dimensional direct numerical simulations at flow …

Particle-fluid flow in a horizontal pipe with side holes is common but poorly understood.
Slurry flow experiments were conducted in three models. The slurry flow in the pipe was …

Highly resolved numerical simulations by the immersed boundary method are used to study
neutrally buoyant spherical particle motion when carried by fluid approaching a wall. The …
