GARBIN RESEARCH GROUP

Welcome to the Garbin Research Group. We are based in the Department of Chemical Engineering at TU Delft. We are interested in the behaviors of soft materials under flow and deformation, particularly the extreme deformation conditions of cavitation (for biomedical ultrasound and bioprocessing applications) and industrial processing flows (for formulated products and advanced materials)... We study microscale transport phenomena in soft and biological matter using high-speed video microscopy, microfluidics, acoustofluidics, small-angle X-ray scattering, optical tweezers, acoustical tweezers - and other fluidic and imaging techniques. Combining precision measurements with discrete particle simulations or analytical models, we aim to link the change in microstructure of a soft material to its mascroscopic properties and its performance in applications.
