Microflow Switching using Artificial Cilia for On‐Demand Particle Manipulation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2025.
A magnetically actuated artificial cilia platform is developed for reversible microflow switching and particle manipulation. By modulating the beating frequencies via external magnetic fields, the system enables shear‐driven particle trapping, directional release, and in situ microfluidic mixing.

Pulse Driven Injection in an Additive-Manufactured Microchannel for Rapid Mixing of Stratified Concurrent Flow and On-Demand Droplet Generation

Micromachines
Laminar co-flow in microchannels typically results in stratified streams with diffusion-limited mixing. This work presents an additively manufactured microfluidic platform that integrates a pulse tank and a transverse injection nozzle into an otherwise ...

A review on biodiesel micromixers: Types of micromixers, configurations, and flow patterns

Heliyon
The production of biodiesel conventionally relies on batch reactors for the transesterification of oil and alcohol. However, the inherent limitations of batch-wise biodiesel production, including biphasic oil and alcohol, the establishment of equilibrium during transesterification, and heightened manufacturing costs, underscore the need for ...

Co‐Precipitation of Ni‐Rich Me(OH)2 Precursors for High Performance LiNixMnyCo1‐x‐yO2 Cathodes: A Review

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 8, Issue 6, November 2025.
This review addresses the nucleation mechanism and the thermodynamic and kinetic reaction processes of co‐precipitation. The comprehensive effects of key parameters on precursor physicochemical properties are also systematically interpreted. Notably, precursor characterization and physicochemical properties, including impurity levels and tolerance ...

Experimental Study and Turbulence Dissipative Scale Modelling of the Rapid Micromixing of Impinging, Paper-Thin Sheets of Liquids

Previous studies have shown that the impingement of thin liquid sheets produces high energy dissipation rates due to the release of kinetic energy in a very small volume of liquid (0.0001 to 0.01 g), even though flowrates are on the order of L/min ...
