Abstract: Flow dynamics in nano-scaled structures such as nanochannels and nanopores have recently become important in developing next-generation high-speed DNA sequencers. In the present paper, we report ...

Abstract: A new device has been developed for sequential production of mm-sized solid spherical shells using liquid-liquid gas systems. This device comprises a cylindrical vessel, for containing two kinds ...

Abstract: To develop the prototype vibration pumping device for an artificial heart (Hashimoto et al., 1994, ASME J. Fluids Eng., 116 , pp. 741–745), the flow patterns in the casing were analyzed ...
