Active pressure induced disturbances

One of the simple ways to achieve active mixing is to induce a pressure field disturbance. Active micromixers relying on this strategy have been reported from different authors [43, 156-159], Deshmuck et al. [156, 157] proposed a T-junction microfluidic chip with an integrated micropump that alternatively drives and stops the flow within the microdevice to create a segmented flow.
