Influence of periodic trench patterns on the motion of densely packed emulsions within confined geometries

Key Points

• Densely packed emulsions exhibited diverse motion patterns in confined geometries, responding to trench patterns.
• Key evidence showed an increased motion variance in emulsions with specific trench configurations, enhancing flow efficiency.
• This observational analysis applied advanced imaging techniques to monitor the motion dynamics of emulsions.
• Understanding design influences on emulsion motion may enable improved processing techniques in various industrial applications.
