During powder based additive manufacturing processes, a component is realized layer
upon layer by the selective melting of powder layers with a laser or an electron beam. The …

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 …

We experimentally study the formation and evolution of threads containing more viscous
liquids surrounded by less viscous, immiscible liquids through hydrodynamic focusing in …

The use of microfluidics to make mechanical property measurements is increasingly
common. Fabrication of microfluidic devices has enabled various types of flow control and …

The development and growth of microfluidics has stimulated interest in the behaviour of
complex liquids in micro-scale geometries and provided a rich platform for rheometric …

This paper presents a comprehensive review on the peculiar phenomena of elasticity-
induced instabilities, transition to turbulence and elastic turbulence in very low Reynolds …

A conservative level-set method (LSM) embedded in a computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
simulation provides a useful approach for the studying the physics and underlying …

The non-Newtonian shear-thinning droplet formation mechanism in a T-junction
microchannel is experimentally investigated using the aqueous solutions of xanthan gum as …

We report a numerical study on the mixed electroosmotic and pressure-driven transport of
an Oldroyd-B fluid through a microchannel having high surface charge modulated walls. We …

We introduce a flexible microfluidic device to characterize the mechanical properties of soft
viscoelastic solids such as bacterial biofilms. In the device, stress is imposed on a test …
