This is a review of the theoretical and applied progress made based on the Constructal law
of design and evolution in nature, with emphasis on the last decade. The Constructal law is …

This article addresses the main research areas identified in the call for contributions to this
special issue. With examples from published articles and books, the present article shows …

In electronics cooling, it is vital to remove a high amount of heat from electronic components
within a confined space to keep the temperature below a required limit and to increase the …

In this paper, a literature review is presented regarding the hydrodynamic effects of different
hand and arm movements during swimming with the aim to identify lacunae in current …

When a fluid accelerates as it sweeps a solid surface there are two consequences: the
friction and the heat transfer (thermal contact) between fluid and solid increase …

The present work applies the Constructal Design method to analyze the performance of a
rectangular isothermal block (IB)-inside an adiabatic lid-driven cavity with an isothermal lid …

The application of the Constructal Design method in Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics
areas is an already consecrated approach to geometrically evaluate these flow engineering …

This chapter documents some of the major advances made during the past few years under
the umbrella of the constructal law of design evolution. The constructal law is applied here to …

Here, we show that the peak temperature on a non-uniformly heated domain can be
decreased by embedding a high-conductivity insert in it. The trunk of the high-conductivity …

Here we uncover the passive micromixer designs with the maximum mixing efficiency under
a lesser flow impedance. Three different designs of micromixers were considered for volume …
