Figure 1. — Geometry of the microfluidic devices: (a) microcontraction experiment of Tovar-Lopez et al. [9], in the figure the contraction angle of the microfluidic device is given by α (30, 60 or 90°) and the body force F_b drives the flow. (b) Bead assay experiment of Nesbitt et al. [8], the geometry of the largest bead (15 μm) is shown and in this simulation the flow is driven by a velocity (V) boundary at the top plane of the geometry.
