Interfacial thermal resistance (ITR) is the main obstacle for heat flows from one material to
another. Understanding ITR becomes essential for the removal of redundant heat from fast …

Interfacial thermal resistance is the primary impediment to heat flow in materials and devices
as characteristic lengths become comparable to the mean‐free paths of the energy carriers …

A diverse spectrum of technology drivers such as improved thermal barriers, higher
efficiency thermoelectric energy conversion, phase-change memory, heat-assisted magnetic …

The thermal conductivity and viscosity of various shapes of alumina nanoparticles in a fluid
consisting of equal volumes of ethylene glycol and water were investigated. Experimental …

Pressure-driven water flow through carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with diameters ranging from
1.66 to 4.99 nm is examined using molecular dynamics simulation. The flow rate …

A detailed understanding of the vibrational heat transfer mechanisms between solids is
essential for the efficient thermal engineering and control of nanomaterials. We investigate …

The development of microfluidic devices has recently revived the interest in “old” problems
associated with transport at, or across, interfaces. As the characteristic sizes are decreased …

Using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations in which a temperature gradient is
imposed, we study how the ordering of the liquid at the liquid–solid interface affects the …

The Kapitza resistance (RK) between few-layer graphene (FLG) and water was studied
using molecular dynamics simulations. The RK was found to depend on the number of the …

In the 1990s, nanoparticles and quantum dots began to be used in optical, electronic, and
biological applications. Now they are being studied for use in solid-state quantum …
