Afrequency response model <strong>of</strong> electroosmotic actuators was developed to provide a generalizedsolution to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with temporal resolution under anarbitrary applied electric field. Theory is being validated through tracking <strong>of</strong> immersed particlesvia a high-speed camera and customized MATLAB s<strong>of</strong>tware for image analysis. Involved the use<strong>of</strong> function generators, voltage amplifiers, oscilloscopes, microscope equipment, and a CMOScamera.Investigating the effects an applied electric field has on a conducting cross-channel cylinder inan ionic solution. Developed and fabricated a pro<strong>of</strong>-<strong>of</strong>-concept fluidic channel with integratedconducting cylinder and imaged flow with a high-speed CMOS camera.
