Abstract Models for flows of a non-Newtonian liquid have been considered within the
framework of the micropolar theory. Different forms of constitutive equations and boundary …

We develop numerical schemes for solving the isothermal compressible and incompressible
equations of fluctuating hydrodynamics on a grid with staggered momenta. We develop a …

The fluid dynamics of macroscopic and microscopic systems is well developed and has
been extensively validated. Its extraordinary success makes it tempting to apply Navier …

The classic description of capillary rise given by the Washburn equation was recently
questioned in the light of experimental evidence for a velocity dependent dynamic contact …

Pumping of fluids confined to nanometer dimension spaces is a technically challenging yet
vitally important technological application with far reaching consequences for lab-on-a-chip …

This paper introduces the fundamental continuum theory governing momentum transport in
isotropic nanofluidic systems. The theory is an extension of the classical Navier–Stokes …

The effect of hydrodynamic slip on salinity-gradient-driven power conversion by the process
of reverse electrodialysis, in which the free energy of mixing of salt and fresh water across a …

The flow factor approach model was re-visited for the fluid flow in a nano slit pore. According
to this model, the velocity profiles of the Couette and Poiseuille flows of a confined fluid were …

Control and understanding of flows inside fabricated nanochannels is rich in potential
applications, but nanoscale physics of fluids remains to be clarified even for the simple case …

This work aims to study the pressure dependence of the thickness of the epitaxial silicon
carbide film growing from crystalline silicon due to the heterogeneous reaction with gaseous …
