Controlling Mixing Inside a Droplet by Time Dependent Rigid-body Rotation
The use of microscopic discrete fluid volumes (i.e., droplets) as microreactors for digital microfluidic applications often requires mixing enhancement and control within droplets. In this work, we consider a translating spherical liquid droplet to which
