Nanofluidics has emerged recently in the footsteps of microfluidics, following the quest for
scale reduction inherent to nanotechnologies. By definition, nanofluidics explores transport …

This review is focused on molecular momentum transport at fluid-solid interfaces mainly
related to microfluidics and nanofluidics in micro-/nano-electro-mechanical systems …

Understanding and controlling the flow of water confined in nanopores has tremendous
implications in theoretical studies and industrial applications. Here, we propose a simple …

We report on the capillary rise of water in three-dimensional networks of hydrophilic silica
pores with 3.5 nm and 5 nm mean radii, respectively (porous Vycor monoliths). We find …

Electrokinetic phenomena originally developed in colloid chemistry have drawn great
attention in micro-and nano-fluidic lab-on-a-chip systems for manipulation of both liquids …

While the global slippage of water past superhydrophobic surfaces has attracted wide
interest, the local distribution of slip still remains unclear. Using fluorescence correlation …

The boundary condition at the solid–liquid interface on the micro/nanoscale is an important
issue in micro/nanofluidic systems, where drag forces between fluids and solid walls need to …

Abstract Design and synthesis of electric-driven micro/nanomotors (EDMNMs) have
attracted tremendous attention because of their unique advantages, such as non-necessity …

Shale oil reserves are becoming more important with the development of oil & gas industry.
However, the transport mechanisms of oil in nanopores of kerogen remain a mystery. The …

Equilibrium and nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations were conducted in order to
evaluate the hypothesis that the hydrodynamic slip length is a surface property. The system …
