Droplet formation in microfluidic T-junction generators operating in the transitional regime. I. Experimental observations
Glawdel, Tomasz; Elbuken, Caglar; Ren, Carolyn L. (American Physical Society Physics, 2012-01-26)This is the first part of a two-part study on the generation of droplets at a microfluidic T-junction operating in the transition regime where confinement of the droplet creates a large squeezing pressure that influences ... -
Droplet formation in microfluidic T-junction generators operating in the transitional regime. II. Modeling
Glawdel, Tomasz; Elbuken, Caglar; Ren, Carolyn L. (American Physical Society Physics, 2012-01-26)This is the second part of a two-part study on the generation of droplets at a microfluidic T-junction operating in the transition regime. In the preceding paper [Phys. Rev. E 85, 016322 (2012)], we presented our experimental ... -
Droplet formation in microfluidic T-junction generators operating in the transitional regime. III. Dynamic surfactant effects
Glawdel, Tomasz; Ren, Carolyn L. (American Physical Society Physics, 2012-08-13)This study extends our previous work on droplet generation in microfluidic T-junction generators to include dynamic interfacial tension effects created by the presence of surfactants. In Paper I [T. Glawdel, C. Elbuken, ... -
Non-linear, non-monotonic effect of nano-scale roughness on particle deposition in absence of an energy barrier: Experiments and modeling
Jin, Chao; Glawdel, Tomasz; Ren, Carolyn L.; Emelko, Monica B. (Springer Nature, 2015-12-11)Deposition of colloidal- and nano-scale particles on surfaces is critical to numerous natural and engineered environmental, health, and industrial applications ranging from drinking water treatment to semi-conductor ...
