Micro- and Nanoscale Fluid Mechanics: Transport in Microfluidic Devices (Hardcover)

This text focuses on the physics of fluid transport in micro- and nanofabricated liquid-phase systems, with consideration of gas bubbles, solid particles, and macromolecules. This text was designed with the goal of bringing together several areas that are often taught separately - namely, fluid mechanics, electrodynamics, and interfacial chemistry and electrochemistry - with a focused goal of preparing the modern microfluidics researcher to analyze and model continuum fluid mechanical systems encountered when working with micro- and nanofabricated devices. This text is not a summary of current research in the field, and it omits any discussion of microfabrication techniques or any attempt to summarize the technological state of the art. This text serves as a useful reference for practicing researchers but is designed primarily for classroom instruction. Worked sample problems are inserted throughout to assist the student, and exercises are included at the end of each chapter to facilitate use in classes.

本文著重於微型和納米製造液相系統中的流體傳輸物理，並考慮到氣泡、固體顆粒和大分子。本文旨在將通常分開教授的幾個領域結合在一起，包括流體力學、電動力學以及界面化學和電化學，以便為現代微流體學研究人員準備分析和建模連續流體力學系統，這些系統在使用微型和納米製造設備時會遇到。本文不是對該領域的現有研究的總結，也不包括任何有關微製造技術的討論，也不試圖總結技術的最新狀態。本文主要用於課堂教學，但也可作為實踐研究人員的有用參考。文中插入了解題示例以幫助學生，每章末尾還包含練習題，以便在課堂上使用。
