Nanofluidics has firmly established itself as a new field in fluid mechanics, as novel
properties have been shown to emerge in fluids at the nanometric scale. Thanks to recent …

Fluidic channels at atomic scales regulate cellular trafficking and molecular filtration across
membranes, and thus play crucial roles in the functioning of living systems. However …

Liquid-infused surfaces (LISs) are composite solid–liquid surfaces with remarkable features
such as liquid repellency, self-healing, and the suppression of fouling. This review focuses …

Gas permeation through nanoscale pores is ubiquitous in nature and has an important role
in many technologies,. Because the pore size is typically smaller than the mean free path of …

A relative permeability model for gas-water two phase flow in water-wet nanoporous media
is proposed based on the continuity equation with modified non-slip boundary in a single …

Water flow in nanoporous structures in shale strongly depends on water‐pore wall
interactions; specifically, water‐pore wall interactions may influence flow more than water …

Hydrogen is a zero-carbon emission, high energy density, and sustainable sources of
energy, while the proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells have the potential to …

The hydraulic fracturing fluid can easily infiltrate the ultra-tight shale matrix due to the
remarkable slip feature of the liquid flow in nanoscale pores, showing a higher-than …

Omniphobic surfaces, that is, which repel all known liquids, have proven of value in
applications ranging from membrane distillation to underwater drag reduction. A limitation of …

Shale, known as the “tight” rock with abundant nanopores, exhibits extremely low
permeability on the order of micro/nanodarcy. The classic Darcy law, being widely and …
