Optimal control of particle separation in inertial microfluidics [PDF]
The European Physical Journal E, 2013 Recently, inertial mircofluidics has emerged as a promising tool to manipulate complex liquids with possible biomedical applications, for example, to particle separation. Indeed, in experiments different particle types were separated based on their sizes (A.J. Mach, D. Di Carlo, Biotechnol. Bioeng. 107, 302 (2010)). In this article we use a theoretical

A Non‐Reciprocal Architected Porous Medium
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In several fluid flow, energy‐dumping, and energy‐harvesting applications, a dominant flow direction or dominant resistance direction is desirable. In this study, we propose a simple modular geometry that doubles flow resistance in one direction relative to the opposite direction, while maintaining laminar viscous flow.
