  1. Mixing at Low Reynolds Numbers by Vibrating Cantilevered Ionic Polymers

    … a quantitative mixing metric shows that using cantilevered polymers create increases mixing potential in the flow for some actuation cases. Although these differences are present, they do not appear consistently in the results. However, only a partial set of flow information was obtained from …
