Microfabricated integrated circuits revolutionized computation by vastly reducing the space,
labor, and time required for calculations. Microfluidic systems hold similar promise for the …

We survey progress over the past 25 years in the development of microscale devices for
pumping fluids. We attempt to provide both a reference for micropump researchers and a …

Since the second edition of Liquid-Vapor Phase-Change Phenomena was written, research
has substantially enhanced the understanding of the effects of nanostructured surfaces …

Two-phase internal flow is ubiquitous to many systems due to its ability to transfer large
amounts of heat effectively. Recent advances motivated by sustainability have pushed …

Self-propelled nano/micromotors and pumps are considered to be next generation drug
delivery systems since the carriers can either propel themselves (“motor”-based drug …

As the scale of devices becomes small, thermal control and heat dissipation from these
devices can be effectively accomplished through the implementation of microchannel …

This paper investigates heat transfer and pressure drop phenomena over a bank of micro
pin fins. A simplified expression for the total thermal resistance has been derived, discussed …

The forces due to surface tension and momentum change during evaporation, in conjunction
with the forces due to viscous shear and inertia, govern the two-phase flow patterns and the …

Non-mechanical nano-and microscale pumps that function without the aid of an external
power source and provide precise control over the flow rate in response to specific signals …

We present an integrated microfluidic system that achieves efficient mixing between two
miscible liquid streams by introducing a gas phase, forming a segmented gas− liquid (slug) …
