Effect of geometry on droplet formation in the squeezing regime in a microfluidic T-junction (2010, background): “…al. 2006; Tice et al. 2004; Guillot and Colin 2005; Husny and Cooper-White 2006; Christopher et al. 2008) and numerical (Van der Graaf et al. 2006; Gupta et al. 2009; De Menech et al. 2008) studies on the formation of droplets at a T-junction have caught the attention of the practicing engineer,…”
Formation and manipulation of ferrofluid droplets at a microfluidic T-junction (2010, methodology): “Passive methods generate and manipulate droplets with different channel configurations such as T-junction [8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14] and flow focusing [15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21].”
Lattice Boltzmann method for microfluidics: models and applications (2011, methodology): “LBM provides an efficient method to simulate the droplet formation by considering important factors such as flow rate, surface tension, and wettability (Liu and Zhang 2009; van der Graaf et al. 2006; Gupta et al. 2009; Dupin et al. 2006).”
Droplet based microfluidics (2012, unknown): “The droplet breakup process [205], the transition from squeezing to dripping regime [206], and the influence of viscosity [207, 208] and geometry [209] on the breakup process was also calculated numerically with partially good agreement with experimental situations.”
