A novel metaheuristic optimization algorithm, named supply-demand-based optimization
(SDO), is presented in this paper. SDO is a swarm-based optimizer motivated by the supply …

Sorting is an important operation in droplet microfluidics. In this paper, we propose a novel,
active technique for sorting of drops. The technique involves sending of drops to a one …

We investigate the dynamics of pairs of drops in microfluidic ladder networks with slanted
bypasses, which break the fore-aft structural symmetry of the network. Our analytical results …

New Optimization Algorithms and Applications: Atom-Based, Ecosystem-Based and
Economics-Based presents the development of three new optimization algorithms-an Atom …

Advances in the area of droplet microfluidics-that can be harnessed to precisely control very
small volumes of material in space and time-has the potential to significantly enhance bio …

Droplet-based microfluidics is an emerging area that has important applications in chemical
engineering and several other disciplines. For example, these devices have applications in …
