Modeling of platform 3: R1 to R11 represent the hydraulic resistances of the microchannels in the cartridge and in the DLD chips.

<p>P₁ and P₂ are the input pressures at the DLD1 entrance. P_b is the buffer pressure at the DLD2 entrance. P_o is the input oil pressure at the T-junction. Q₁, Q₂, Q_b and Q_o are the flow rates in the DLD channels and in the T-junction.</p
