Computational electrohydrodynamics in the fabrication of hollow polymer microstructures
Electric Field Assisted Capillarity is a novel process which has the potential for the fabrication of hollow polymer microstructures as a single step process. The process has been shown to work experimentally on a microscale using PDMS. The process makes

ABSTRACT To solve the ion‐flow field of ultrahigh‐voltage direct current (UHVDC) transmission lines under strong‐wind scenarios, the multiple relaxation time lattice Boltzmann method (MRT‐LBM) is adopted. Compared with previous ion‐flow studies predominantly based on the single relaxation time LBM, the MRT‐LBM framework provides improved numerical ...

Linear and nonlinear free surface flows in electrohydrodynamics [PDF]
This thesis examines free surface flows in electrohydrodynamics under forcing in the form of a moving pressure distribution or topography. The ideas from examining free surface flows with forcing and those ideas andmethods coming from examining solitary ...

A tubular electrowetting pump moves alternating droplets through a millimeter‐wide channel in discrete, reversible steps, functioning as a fluidic stepper motor. With no moving parts and electrodes insulated from the liquid, it delivers silent, accurate flow. Flexibility allows the pump to be woven directly into textiles for wearable, medical, and soft‐

Electrohydrodynamically Driven Broadband and Color‐Shifting in Cholesteric Liquid Crystals
Ion‐driven electrohydrodynamic effects enable dynamic photonic bandgap modulation in cholesteric liquid crystals under low‐frequency AC driving. By regulating ion‐mediated disturbance of the helical structure, this approach produces two reversible optical responses: rapid color shifting across the visible spectrum and broadband reflection spanning the ...

Numerical simulation of electro-conjugate fluid flow considering electric double layer
An electro-conjugate fluid (ECF) is a dielectric liquid generating powerful flow when high DC voltage is applied with electrodes inserted. The ECF flow is generally known as a kind of electrohydrodynamics phenomenon.
