Level set-based topology optimization targeting micropumps employing an induced-charge electro-osmosis flow

The aim of this research is to construct a topology optimization method for the design of micropumps driven by induced-charge electro-osmosis. Micropumps are one of the most important components in micro-fluid devices such as μ-TAS (Micro Total Analysis Systems). In particular, electro-osmotic micro...
