Stiffness Matrices for Axial and Bending Deformations of Non-Prismatic Beams with Linearly Varying Thickness
Siffness matrices for axial and bending deformations of a beam having a rectangular cross sectional area of constant width and linearly varying thickness are developed. A consistant load vector for a uniformly distributed lateral load is also calculated, using the principal of potential energy. The matrices are used to obtain numerical results for a variety of beams with non-uniform thickness t...
متن کاملMicrofluidic diffusive filter for apheresis (leukapheresis).
Apheresis is a procedure used to fractionate whole blood into its individual components. Following fractionation, the desired component is isolated and the remaining blood in many cases is returned to the donor. Leukapheresis is one type of apheresis where leukocytes (white blood cells) are selectively removed. This procedure is commonly used for blood transfusions to remove donor leukocytes fr...
متن کاملSimulation of magnetic active polymers for versatile microfluidic devices
We propose to use a compound of magnetic nanoparticles (20–100 nm) embedded in a flexible polymer (Polydimethylsiloxane PDMS) to filter circulating tumor cells (CTCs). The analysis of CTCs is an emerging tool for cancer biology research and clinical cancer management including the detection, diagnosis and monitoring of cancer. The combination of experiments and simulations lead to a versatile m...
متن کاملZeta potential of microfluidic substrates: 2. Data for polymers.
Zeta potential data are reviewed for a variety of polymeric microfluidic substrate materials. Many of these materials currently used for microchip fabrication have only recently been employed for generation of electroosmotic flow. Despite their recent history, polymeric microfluidic substrates are currently used extensively for microchip separations and other techniques, and understanding of th...
متن کاملLaser Direct Writing of Thick Hybrid Polymers for Microfluidic Chips
This work presents patterning of thick (10–50 μm) hybrid polymer structures of ORMOCER by laser direct writing. ORMOCER combine polymer-like fabrication processes with glass-like surface chemistry that is beneficial for many bio-microfluidic applications. ORMOCER is liquid before exposure, so patterning is done by contact-free lithography, such as proximity exposure. With laser direct writing, ...
