Flexible smart sensing skin is a key enabling technology for the future “Fly-by-Feel” control
of morphing aircraft. It represents the next-generation skin of aircraft that can exhibit a more …

Turbulence is commonly viewed as a type of macroflow, where the Reynolds number (Re)
has to be sufficiently high. In microfluidics, when Re is below or on the order of 1 and fast …

Micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) devices integrate various mechanical elements,
sensors, actuators, and electronics on a single silicon substrate in order to accomplish a …

Leukocyte recruitment to endothelial cells is a critical event in inflammatory responses. The
spatial, temporal gradients of shear stress, topology, and outcome of cellular interactions …

Application fields of micromachined devices are growing very rapidly due to the continuous
improvement of three dimensional technologies of micro-fabrication. In particular …

Flow control technologies have been used in the past century to control fluid flows. This text
