Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms are relevant for a variety of disease settings, including pulmonary infections in people with cystic fibrosis. Biofilms are initiated by individual bacteria that undergo a phenotypic switch and produce an extracellular polymeric slime (EPS). However, the viscoelastic characteristics of biofilms at different stages of...
We investigate the process behind the formation of the Single T-Junction (STJ) from experiments in a flow-focusing, cross-junction device with hydrophilic coating with two immiscible fluids (deionized water and silicone oil) guided by the use of numerical simulations. The presence of a contact angle heterogeneity between the orthogonal inlets of th...
Migration of an encapsulated leukemia HL60 cell through sudden contractions in a capillary tube is investigated. An HL60 cell is initially encapsulated in a viscoelastic shell fluid. As the cell-laden droplet moves through the sudden contraction, shear stresses are experienced around the cell. These stresses along with the interfacial force and geo...
Encapsulated cell therapy has shown great potential in the treatment of several forms of cancer. Microencapsulation of these cancer cells can protect the core from the harmful effects of the neighboring cellular environment and can supply nutrients and oxygen. Such an encapsulation technique ensures cell viability and enables targeted drug delivery...
Cell microencapsulation is a promising technique to protect living cells in biomedical applications. Microfluidic devices can be utilized to control the production of high-throughput cell-laden droplets. This paper demonstrates the effects of flow-focusing geometry on the droplet size, frequency of droplet generation, and number of cells per drople...
Despite significant progress, cell viability continues to be a central issue in droplet-based bioprinting applications. Common bioinks exhibit viscoelastic behavior owing to the presence of long-chain molecules in their mixture. We computationally study effects of viscoelasticity of bioinks on cell viability during deposition of cell-loaded droplet...
Flow-focusing microencapsulation is an important process to protect the cells in biomedical applications. This article characterizes different cell encapsulation modes and presents the droplet volume distribution, frequency of encapsulation and cell population in terms of inner and outer fluid capillary ratios and viscosity of the shell fluid. The...
We numerically investigate the effects of bulk fluid viscoelasticity on droplet formation and dynamics in an axisymmetric flow focusing configuration. Viscoelasticity is modeled using the finitely extensible nonlinear elastic-Chilcott-Rallison (FENE-CR) model. Extensive simulations are performed to examine droplet formation and breakup dynamics for...
This paper illustrates how a 3 degrees of freedom, Cartesian robot can be
given the task of playing ping pong against a human player. We present an
algorithm based on particle swarm optimization for the robot to calculate when
and how to hit an approaching ball. Simulation results are shown to depict the
effectiveness of our approach. Although emph...
