Abstract
AbstractAcousto-microfluidics uses acoustic waves to manipulate and sense particles and fluids, and its integration into biomedical technologies has grown substantially in recent years. Fluid manipulation and measurement with surface acoustic waves rely on the efficient transmission of acoustic energy from the device to the fluid. Acoustic transmission into the fluid can be reduced significantly by slip at the fluid-solid interface, but, up until now, this phenomenon has been widely neglected during the design of acousto-microfluidic devices. Here our interpretation supports that the slip dynamics at the liquid-solid interface in acousto-microfluidics are highly analogous to the Amontons-Coulomb laws for dry friction between solids. In particular, there is a relationship between the local fluid pressure and shear stress, where we show that pressure-shear stress conditions can be divided into slip and no-slip regions, similar to the cone of friction found in dry friction. This improved understanding of slip will enable more reliable and predictable acousto-microfluidic technologies, thus expanding their use in new applications in biology and medicine.
