Deformation of Microchannels Embedded in an Elastic Medium

Vivek Ramachandran

The deformation of microfluidic channels in a soft elastic medium has a central role in the operation of lab-on-a-chip devices, fluidic soft robots, liquid metal (LM) electronics, and other emerging soft-matter technologies. Understanding the influence of ...

A semi-infinite hydraulic fracture driven by a shear-thinning fluid

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Fatima-Ezzahra Moukhtari

We use the Carreau rheological model which properly accounts for the shear-thinning behaviour between the low and high shear rate Newtonian limits to investigate the problem of a semi-infinite hydraulic fracture propagating at a constant velocity in an imp ...

PZE-transduced Suspended Microchannel Resonators for sensing applications

Annalisa De Pastina

This PhD thesis aims at developing a system which can measure the mechanical properties of fluidic samples in the picoliter range. The ultimate goal is the characterization of cancer cells and viscoelastic fluids (i.e. biological fluids), in order to study ...

Soft actuation and sensing towards robot-assisted facial rehabilitation

Jamie Paik, Amir Firouzeh

Continuing research efforts in robot-assisted rehabilitation demand more adaptable and inherently soft wearable devices. A wearable rehabilitative device is required to follow the motion of the body and to provide assistive or corrective motions to restore ...
