The combined effects of mass transfer and rotation on unsteady magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) free convection flow in a porous medium past an infinite inclined plate with ramped wall temperature has been investigated. The effects of thermal diffusion and heat absorption are also observed. Exact solution using Laplace transforms technique has been obtained for the velocity, temperature and concentrat...

We present a new methodology using highly wetting porous titania films to develop microfluidic devices which can be employed for medical diagnostics. Capillary flows through thin porous media are attractive for small-scale liquid transport systems. Capillary flows show different characteristics depending on the medium, however, for most media it is challenging to realize arbitrary shapes and sp...

Pore network modeling uses a network of pores connected by throats to model the void space of a porous medium and tries to predict its various characteristics during multiphase flow of various fluids. In most cases, a non-realistic regular lattice of pores is used to model the characteristics of a porous medium. Although some methodologies for extracting geologically realistic irregular net...
