Modeling of FlowFET Characteristics
Classical electrokinetic theory demonstrates that modu-lation of the z-potential at the shear plane can alter both the magnitude and direction of Electroosmotic Flow (EOF) induced in a microchannel at low driving field strengths. In the [...]
A Study on the Fluid-Structure Interaction using LSFEM
A study on the fluid-structure interaction using LSFEM is presented. To consider fluid-structure interaction, staggered scheme, which solves fluid and structure respectively by separate solvers in a predictor-corrector fashion, is used. To analyze fluid-structure interaction [...]
Hierarchical Simulation for Microelectrofluidic System Performance Analysis
With the sophisticated development of microelectro fluiidic devices and systems, system performance analysis is a key for system optimization and system re-design. Due to the increasing complexity and natural characteristics of microsystems, system performance is [...]
Pneumatic Regulation of Bi-Directional Fluid Flow in Microchannels
This paper presents a modeling of airflow inside micro-tunnel for fluid pumping. By utilizing unidirectional air servo system, fluid flow can be regulated within microchannels. The operation of servo system is controlled with multiple nozzles. [...]
Theoretical Approximations for the Average Linear Flow of Carrier Gas Through a Rectangular GC Column
The ability of a gas chromatographic (GC) column to separate two compounds is determined by its analytical resolution. The height equivalent to a theoretical plate (HETP) is given by Eq. 1. For a rectangular column, [...]
Application of the Gaseous Cross Phenomena to Microfluidics
Since the size of micro fluidics is very small the gas owing through micropumps, microvalves etc. can not be considered as a continuous medium but its rarefacation must be taken into account. The rarefied gas [...]
Data on the Slip Coefficients
For mathematical modeling of micro fluidics it is necessary to calculate a rarefied gas ow through micropumps, microvalves and other elements with a high accuracy. Since the size of micro fluidics is close to the [...]
Design, Fabrication and Experimental-Numerical Study of PZT Sensors
MEMS micropumps, based on PZT membranes have been designed and fabricated at the Microtechnology Laboratory of the University of Minnesota for use in fluid flow control, and as chemical and pressure sensors. Design, fabrication and [...]

Hydrodynamic force on a plate moving in a viscous fluid near the plane wall as a model of a microelectromechanical system(MEMS) is considered. The flow field is described by the linearized Navier-Stokes equation. The method [...]
Impact of Microdrops on Solid Surfaces for DNA-Synthesis
The miniaturization of chemical synthesis procedures and their integration in complex microfluidic systems is highly interesting both commercially and scientifically. Here, dosing of microdrops for activation or passivation with high accuracy on a substrate or [...]
Computational Studies of Membrane-Based Test Formats
Membrane-based test formats provide simple, accurate and cost effective diagnoses of acute and chronic conditions in general population health. The sensitivity of the immunoassay is determined by the complex biochemical binding kinetics associated with the [...]
