Abstract

<h2>Abstract</h2> The interest in microfluidic applications based on complex fluids is a result of the unique fluid dynamics of these systems, which enable the creation of effective devices for health care or biological and chemical analysis. In this area, processing suspensions of rigid particles in viscoelastic liquids offers a variety of possible applications where the rheology plays a key role. This contribution presents our activities on viscoelasticity-driven microfluidic applications with rigid particles. The effects of the fluid rheology, particle shape, channel geometry, wall properties, and particle volume fraction are addressed.
