This work reviews the present position of and surveys future perspectives in the physics of
chaotic advection: the field that emerged three decades ago at the intersection of fluid …

Transport and mixing of scalar quantities in fluid flows is ubiquitous in industry and Nature.
While the more familiar turbulent flows promote efficient transport and mixing by their …

Mixing under laminar flow conditions is key to a wide variety of industrial fluid systems of
size extending from micrometres to metres. Profound insight into three-dimensional laminar …

We study three-dimensional (3D) chaotic dynamics through an analysis of transport in a
granular flow in a half-full spherical tumbler rotated sequentially about two orthogonal axes …

Magnetic actuation of microscopic beads is a promising technique for enhancement and
manipulation of scalar transport in micro-fluidic systems. This implies laminar and essentially …

The present study concerns Lagrangian transport and (chaotic) advection in three-
dimensional (3D) flows in cavities under steady and laminar conditions. The main goal is to …

This study employs three-dimensional particle-tracking velocimetry (3D-PTV) for
experimental investigation of the existence and properties of periodic lines in 3D lid-driven …

Heat transfer in fluid flows traditionally is examined in terms of temperature field and heat-
transfer coefficients at non-adiabatic walls. However, heat transfer may alternatively be …

Flow forcing by ac electro-osmosis (ACEO) is a promising technique for the actuation and
manipulation of micro-flows. Utilization to date mainly concerns pumping and mixing …

The present study concerns the Lagrangian dynamics of three-dimensional (3D) buoyancy-
driven cavity flows under steady and laminar conditions due to a global temperature …
