<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Written by leading experts in the field, the book introduces the use ultrasound-based external forcing of microparticles with microfluidic systems.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Acoustofluidics is an emerging field combining fluidics with ultrasonic standing wave technology. This book presents the fundamental physics of acoustofluidics in microfluidic systems, demonstrating how such systems can be designed and inspiring the reader with examples of current applications such as acoustophoresis and acoustic streaming. The editor has been a driving force in the field, and has drawn together expertise from across the globe to present a thorough guide for anyone wishing to develop their own acoustofluidic systems.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>The manipulation of cells and microparticles within microfluidic systems using external forces is valuable for many microscale analytical and bioanalytical applications. Acoustofluidics is the ultrasound-based external forcing of microparticles with microfluidic systems. It has gained much interest because it allows for the simple label-free separation of microparticles based on their mechanical properties without affecting the microparticles themselves.</p> <p><strong>Microscale Acoustofluidics</strong> provides an introduction to the field providing the background to the fundamental physics including chapters on governing equations in microfluidics and perturbation theory and ultrasound resonances, acoustic radiation force on small particles, continuum mechanics for ultrasonic particle manipulation, and piezoelectricity and application to the excitation of acoustic fields for ultrasonic particle manipulation. The book also provides information on the design and characterization of ultrasonic particle manipulation devices as well as applications in acoustic trapping and immunoassays.</p> <p>Written by leading experts in the field, the book will appeal to postgraduate students and researchers interested in microfluidics and lab-on-a-chip applications.</p>
