Angstrom-scale fluidic channels are ubiquitous in nature and play an important role in
regulating cellular traffic, signaling, and responding to stimuli. Synthetic angstrom channels …

The transport of fluid and ions in nano/molecular confinements is the governing physics of a
myriad of embodiments in nature and technology including human physiology, plants …

Heat is one of the main causes of performance degradation and failure of proton exchange
membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The 'hot spot'and uneven temperature distribution formed …

Understanding and controlling confined CO 2 fluids in nanopores is at the heart of the CO 2
enhanced oil recovery in shale reservoirs. Here, for the first time, qualitative and quantitative …

Condensation on the nanoscale is essential to understand many natural and synthetic
systems relevant to water, air, and energy. Despite its importance, the underlying physics of …

Conspectus Nanofluidics is the study of fluids under nanoscale confinement, where small-
scale effects dictate fluid physics and continuum assumptions are no longer fully valid. At …

Hydrocarbon recovery from shale reservoirs provides an increasing share of world energy.
These resources are multicomponent fluid mixtures within multiscale geometries, and …

Determining gas and oil minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) plays a vital role in the
enhanced oil recovery. Injecting gases above the MMP into oil reservoirs leads to a …

Shale oil has been receiving more and more attention, because of its promising contribution
to energy development and utilization. Capillary imbibition in shale nanopores widely exists …
