To clarify the dynamical role of the air–water interface in the turbulence production, the attenuating interfacial gravity waves were simulated directly using a newly developed two-phase ...

Micro- and nano-fluidics, which is the heart of the lab-on-a-chip (LOC) technology, deals with the manipulation of tiny amounts of fluids, from micro- to picoliters. At such scales, the area-to-volume ...

Unifying principle and the three main classes of colloids (dispersions, macromolecular solutions and micelles) are considered. Topics covered include surface tension, work and energy, effect of ...
