Two phase systems are ubiquitous in processes and products, and in both cases
performance is maximized when precise control over the individual phases, and the …

Droplet formation and breakup dynamics in either dripping or jetting regimes in microfluidic
flow-focusing devices were investigated experimentally. More viscous liquids were …

Using a lattice Boltzmann multiphase model, three-dimensional numerical simulations have
been performed to understand droplet formation in microfluidic cross-junctions at low …

Most commercial microfluidic droplet generators rely on the planar flow-focusing
configuration implemented in polymer or glass chips. The planar geometry, however, suffers …

Studies of droplet formation regime and actual flow rate of liquid-liquid flows were conducted
in flow-focusing microfluidic devices using water or gellan solution as aqueous phase and …

We present a model to predict the size of droplets dripping into an immiscible flowing fluid in
glass capillary microfluidic devices. Despite the complex flow behavior in the confined …

A color-gradient lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is proposed to simulate axisymmetric
multicomponent flows. This method uses a collision operator that is a combination of three …

One of the goals of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is restoring primary living
