Hatsopoulos Microfluids Laboratory (HML) Community home page

The Hatsopolous Microfluids laboratory (HML) was created within the Department of Mechanical Engineering as a center for research activities which focus on understanding the dynamics of fluid with microstructure and the emerging science of microfluidics. The Hatsopoulos Microfluids Laboratory (HML) (http://web.mit.edu/fluids/www/) consists of a single open-plan 6300 ft^2 laboratory that houses seven active and three emeritus faculty plus over 45 students and postdoctoral researchers. A broad overview of the principal research areas of faculty members within the laboratory is summarized below:

• optical imaging of complex flows
• rheology and dynamics of complex fluids
• dynamics of thin films
• flow stability
• flow-structure interactions
• flow in microfluidic devices and 'lab-on-a-chip' applications
• biofluid mechanics and biorheology
• Capillary phenomena and contact line dynamics
