PDE Modeling of a Microfluidic Thermal Process for Genetic Analysis Application by Reza Banaei Khosroushahi, Horacio J. Marquez, Jose Martinez-Quijada, Christopher J. Backhouse

“…Highly effective infinite dimensional dynamics, in addition to collocated sensor and actuator architecture, require the development of a precise control framework to meet the very tight performance requirements of this system, which are not fully attainable through conventional lumped modeling and controller design approaches. The general partial differential equations describing the dynamics of the system are separated into steady-state and transient parts which are derived for a carefully chosen three-dimensional axisymmetric model. …”
