Multiphysics microfluidics, which combines multiple functional physical processes in a
microfluidics platform, is an emerging research area that has attracted increasing interest for …

The microfluidic flow is typically laminar due to the dominant viscous effects. At Reynolds
numbers far below 1 (Re≪ 1), the fluid inertia can be neglected. For the steady flow of …

Focusing particles into a narrow stream is usually a necessary step in microfluidic flow
cytometry and particle sorting. We demonstrate that the addition of a small amount of poly …

Liposomes are one of the most attractive particles in different industries, especially
pharmaceutical applications. The main reasons for such a desire for liposomes are …

Microfluidic manipulation of particles usually relies on their cross-stream migration. A center-
or wall-directed motion has been reported for particles leading or lagging the Poiseuille flow …

Viscoelastic polymer solutions have been widely employed as suspending liquids for a
myriad of microfluidic applications including particle and cell focusing, sorting, and …

The lateral migration of colloidal particles inside a microfluidic channel has gained attention
due to being both fundamentally intriguing and applicable for particle separation, such as …

Implementation of viscoelasticity-based particle migration techniques has attracted
significant interest thanks to its simplicity to achieve particle separation and enrichment at …

Many engineering and natural phenomena involve the merging of two fluid streams through
a T-junction. Previous studies of such merging flows have been focused primarily upon …

The flow behavior of blood is determined mainly by red blood cell (RBC) deformation and
aggregation as well as blood viscoelasticity. These intricately interdependent parameters …
