Self-organizing microfluidic crystals
We consider how to design a microfluidic system in which suspended particles spontaneously order into flowing crystals when driven by external pressure. Via theory and numerics, we find that particle-particle hydrodynamic interactions drive self-organization under suitable conditions of particle mor...
