Microfluidics is the science of controlling fluids at the micrometer scale, where surface tension and viscosity dominate over inertia. Lab-on-a-chip devices leverage these physics to perform complex biochemical analyses — from DNA sequencing to drug screening — on platforms smaller than a credit card, using nanoliters of reagent instead of milliliters.
These simulations let you generate monodisperse droplets in T-junction geometries, study diffusion-driven mixing in laminar channels, control droplets with electrowetting forces, observe capillary-driven flow through narrow channels, and sort fluorescently labeled cells at thousands per second — all with real-time interactive parameter control.
