The development and analysis of the performance of microfluidic components for lab-on-a-
chip devices are becoming increasingly important because microfluidic applications are …

Over the years, various experimental methods have been applied in an effort to understand
the blood flow behavior in microcirculation. Most of our current knowledge in …

Progress in microfabricated technologies has attracted the attention of researchers in
several areas, including microcirculation. Microfluidic devices are expected to provide …

In this work we combined numerical simulation with molecular-diffusion effect, high-tempo
micro-particle image velocimetry (μ-PIV), and probability distribution function (PDF) analysis …

Improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases facilitate a better
understanding of the ongoing process. The study of biomedical fluid dynamics using non …

Our current understanding of zooplankton interactions with surrounding fluid is limited,
partially because traditional methods of particle image velocimetry (PIV) become impractical …

A micro particle shadow velocimetry (μPSV) system based on back-lit illumination and
forward scatter observation of light from non-fluorescent particles has been developed …

Platelet aggregation has been known to be closely influenced by the surrounding
hemodynamic environments. Especially, platelet activation, aggregation, and thrombus …

In this study, we provide a general investigation on micro-PIV with LED illumination. A
number of improvements over previous LED-based systems are suggested, in particular, we …

In hemodynamics, the inherent intermittency of two-phase cellular-level flow has received
little attention. Unsteadiness is reported and quantified for the first time in the literature using …
