Determination of Non-local Elasticity Constants for the Torsional Buckling of Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes Using Molecular Dynamics

Khademolhosseini F., Rajapakse R.K.N.D., Nojeh A., University of British Columbia, CA

Recently, devices have been developed which use Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) as torsional spring elements. In order to define the range of applicability of CNTs in such devices, it is important to fully understand their torsional [...]

Numerical Modeling of Microdrop Motion on Digital Microfluidic Multiplexer

Ahmadi A., Najjaran H., Holzman J., Hoorfar M., University of British Columbia, CA

This paper introduces a computationally efficient numerical modeling approach for microdroplet motion on an innovative Digital Microfluidic Multiplexer structure which enables the pilot synthesis and study of nanoparticles. This structure offers an enhanced level of [...]
