A microfluidic methodology to identify the mechanical properties of capsules: comparison with a microrheometric approach
We present a microfluidic method to measure the elastic properties of a population of microcapsules (liquid drops enclosed by a thin hyperelastic membrane). The method is based on the observation of flowing capsules in a cylindrical capillary tube and an automatic inverse analysis of the deformed pr...
