Understanding water transport through graphene-based nanochannels via experimental control of slip length. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2022 The water transport along graphene-based nanochannels has gained significant interest. However, experimental access to the influence of defects and impurities on transport poses a critical knowledge gap. Here, we investigate the water transport of cation

A Fractal Permeability Model of Tight Oil Reservoirs Considering the Effects of Multiple Factors
Fractal and Fractional, 2022 The prediction of permeability and the evaluation of tight oil reservoirs are very important to extract tight oil resources. Tight oil reservoirs contain enormous micro/nanopores, in which the fluid flow exhibits micro/nanoscale flow and has a slip ...

Change in drag, apparent slip and optimum air layer thickness for laminar flow over an idealised superhydrophobic surface [PDF]
, 2013 Analytic results are derived for the apparent slip length, the change in drag and the optimum air layer thickness of laminar channel and pipe flow over an idealised superhydrophobic surface, i.e. a gas layer of constant thickness retained on a wall.

High-Velocity Shear and Soft Friction at the Nanometer Scale
Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2021 We study high-speed friction on soft polymer materials by measuring the amplitude dependence of cyclic lateral forces on the atomic force microscope (AFM) tip as it slides on the surface with fixed contact force.
