Chaotic mixing using periodic and aperiodic sequences of mixing protocols in a micromixer

Kang T.G., Singh M.K., Kwon T.H., Anderson P.D., Eindhoven University of Technology, NL

We conducted a numerical study on mixing in a barrier embedded micromixer with an emphasis on the effect of periodic and aperiodic sequences of mixing protocols on mixing performance. A mapping method was employed to [...]

Filtration and emulsification with nanoengineered membranes

van Rijn C.J.M., Nijdam W., University of Wageningen, NL

With microengineering techniques it is possible to manufacture very precise perforated membranes. The pores, which are well defined by photolithographic methods, allow accurate separation of particles by size. The membrane thickness is usually smaller than [...]

Chaotic advection induced by a magnetic chain in a rotating magnetic field

Kang T.G., Hulsen M.A., Anderson P.D., den Toonder J.M.J, Meijer H.E.H., Eindhoven University of Technology, NL

We investigated chaotic advection induced by a magnetic chain suspended in a fluid in a rotating magnetic field. Our main focus is on the dynamics of the chain and the route to induce chaotic mixing, [...]

Fabrication of 1D nanochannels with thin glass wafers for single molecule studies

Hoang H., Segers-Nolten I., Tas N., de Boer M., Subramaniam V., Elwenspoek M., Mesa+ Institute for Nanotechnology, NL

1D nanochannels are fabricated by direct bonding between the silicon wafer containing the nanochannels, microchannels, access holes and the blank thin glass of 170 µm thickness. The thin glass wafers are used as channel covers [...]

A new compact scalable circuit model for RF MEMS switches

Suy H.M.R., Huizing H.G.A., Steeneken P.G., Yanson O.I., NXP Semiconductors, NL

In this paper, a new compact scalable circuit model for RF MEMS switches is presented. This new one-dimensional model combines the computational speed of one-dimensional models, with the accuracy of multi-dimensional models. The model includes [...]

The mechanical stiffness and the size effect of the silicon based nano-structures using molecular dynamic (MD) simulation

Yuan C.A., van der Sluis O., van Driel W.D., van Silfhout R.B.R., Zhang G.Q., Ernst L.J., van der Sluis O., van Driel W.D., van Silfhout R.B.R., van der Sluis O., van Driel W.D., van Silfhout R.B.R., Delft University of Technology, NL

The mechanical stiffness of the silicon based nano-structures is studied using the molecular dynamics (MD) method and the size effect of the nano-structures was captured. The MD simulation procedure is based on the linear-elastic theory, [...]
