Optimal Control of Colloidal Trajectories in Inertial Microfluidics Using the Saffman Effect
In inertial microfluidics colloidal particles in a Poiseuille flow experience the Segré-Silberberg lift force, which drives them to specific positions in the channel cross section. An external force applied along the microchannel induces a cross-streamline migration to a new equilibrium position bec...
