The gas flow in shale matrix is of great research interests for optimized shale gas extraction. The gas flow in the nano-scale pore may fall in flow regimes such as viscous flow, slip flow and Knudsen diffusion. A 3-dimensional nano-scale pore network model was developed to simulate dynamic gas flow, and to describe the transient properties of flow regimes. The proposed pore network model accou...

This paper presents numerical and experimental analysis of the hydrodynamic flow focusing in a rectangular microchannel. Aim of the study is to improve performance of the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) technique applied to micro-scale flow analysis. The symmetric flow focusing system of two channels crossed at right angle is investigated. The numerical model is used to analyse the effect of R...

In this paper are presented the influences of the adhesion forces occurring in hyperbolic micro contact on the oil velocity and friction forces in hyper bolic micro bearing gap. Here are elaborated the dependences between adhesive forces and oil dynamic viscosity in super t hin boundary layer and in fluences of adhesive forces on the oil velocities and friction forces in microand nano-scale ari...

In the present work a two fluid model for blood flow through abnormally constrictedhuman artery (stenosed artery) has been developed. The model consists of a core region of suspensionof all erythrocytes assumed to be micro-polar fluid so as to include the micro-structural effects inaddition to the peripheral-layer viscosity effects, and a peripheral plasma layer free from cells of anykind of Ne...

The main means of secondary oil recovery is water flooding, which has been widely used in various oilfields. Different flow rates have a great impact on the ratio and occurrence remaining oil. Scholars carried out extensive research it, but mostly macro scale, three-dimensional micro scale also limited by accuracy lack accurate understanding. In this paper, micro-CT core displacement experiment...

We report a simplified flow cytometer design that makes use of negative dielectrophoresis (DEP) for particle focusing and integrated optical and AC impedance detectors to enable an inexpensive, compact and robust system for cell and particle characterization. This straightforward, modular design could be applied as a standalone instrument or as a particle detector in an integrated micro total a...

Micro/nanocantilevers have been employed as sensors in many applications including chemical and biosensing. Due to their high sensitivity and potential for scalability, miniature sensing systems are in wide use and will likely become more prevalent in micro/nano-electromechanical systems (M-NEMSs). This paper is mainly focused on the use of sensing systems that employ micro/nano-size cantilever...
