RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
2009–2019 Manipulation and Self-Assembly of Microparticles Using Combined Electroosmotic and Poiseuille Flows Through Microchannels
Georgia Institute of Technology, Department of Mechanical Engineering
Advisor: Minami Yoda
Duty: Graduate Research Assistant
Description: Evanescent-wave particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) was used to study the near-wall dynamics of microparticles in electrokinetically and/or shear driven flows through microchannels. It was discovered that shear and/or electric fields can be used to manipulate the near-wall distribution of microparticles and in certain flow configurations can be utilized to assemble the microparticles into streamwise bands.
Jul. 2014 Investigation of Combined EO and Poiseuille Flow Through Microchannels Using Astigmatism PTV The Universitӓt der Bunderwehr München, Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics
Advisor: Christian J. Kӓhler
Duty: Visiting Researcher
Description: Astigmatism-PTV technique was used to study the bulk flow characteristics of combined EO and Poiseuille flows. The role of secondary flows in the formation of streamwise bands was investigated.
