Viscoelastic microfluidics: progress and challenges

open access: yesMicrosystems & Nanoengineering, 2020
The manipulation of cells and particles suspended in viscoelastic fluids in microchannels has drawn increasing attention, in part due to the ability for single-stream three-dimensional focusing in simple channel geometries.

Paper-Based Bi-Material Cantilever Actuator Bending Behavior and Modeling

open access: yesMicromachines, 2023
In this paper, the behavior of the Bi-Material Cantilever (B-MaC) response deflection upon fluidic loading was experimentally studied and modeled for bilayer strips. A B-MaC consists of a strip of paper adhered to a strip of tape.

Digital Signal Processing for Molecular Communication via Chemical Reactions-based Microfluidic Circuits [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Chemical reactions-based microfluidic circuits are expected to provide new opportunities to perform signal processing functions over molecular domain. To realize this vision, in this article, we exploit and present the digital signal processing capabilities of chemical reactions-based microfluidic circuits.

Punch Card Programmable Microfluidics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Small volume fluid handling in single and multiphase microfluidics provides a promising strategy for efficient bio-chemical assays, low-cost point-of-care diagnostics and new approaches to scientific discoveries. However multiple barriers exist towards low-cost field deployment of programmable microfluidics.
