Microfabricated integrated circuits revolutionized computation by vastly reducing the space,
labor, and time required for calculations. Microfluidic systems hold similar promise for the …

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

The flow of water in carbon nanochannels has defied understanding thus far, with
accumulating experimental evidence for ultra-low friction, exceptionally high water flow rates …

For several centuries fluid dynamics studies have relied upon the assumption that when a
liquid flows over a solid surface, the liquid molecules adjacent to the solid are stationary …

In this paper, we study the interfacial friction of water at graphitic interfaces with various
topologies, water between planar graphene sheets, inside and outside carbon nanotubes …

The no-slip boundary condition at a solid-liquid interface is at the center of our
understanding of fluid mechanics. However, this condition is an assumption that cannot be …

Tribology is the study of adhesion, friction, lubrication and wear of surfaces in relative
motion. It remains as important today as it was in ancient times, arising in the fields of …

The dynamics and structure of water at hydrophobic and hydrophilic diamond surfaces is
examined via non-equilibrium Molecular Dynamics simulations. For hydrophobic surfaces …

With the important development of microfluidic systems, miniaturization of flow devices has
become a real challenge. Microchannels, however, are characterized by a large surface-to …

The development of microfluidic devices has recently revived the interest in “old” problems
associated with transport at, or across, interfaces. As the characteristic sizes are decreased …
