Figure 3.
Dynamics of a microcapsule flowing in a microchannel with a square cross-section predicted by FOM in the vertical cutting plane represented in grey in (a).
The in-plane capsule profiles are shown for Ca = 0.13 and a/ℓ = 0.8 at the non-dimensional times Vt/ℓ = 0, 0.4, 2, 4, 6 in (b). The horizontal lines on (b) represent the channel borders. The capsule will always be represented flowing from left to right.
