Flow of power-law fluids in self-affine fracture channels
Yiguang Yan, Joel Koplik
The two-dimensional pressure driven flow of non-Newtonian power-law fluids in self-affine fracture channels at finite Reynolds number is calculated. The channels have constant mean…
Dynamical clustering of counterions on flexible polyelectrolytes
Tak Shing Lo, Boris Khusid, Joel Koplik
Molecular dynamics simulations are used to study the local dynamics of counterion-charged polymer association at charge densities above and below the counterion condensation thresh…
Shear flow pumping in open microfluidic systems
Markus Rauscher, S. Dietrich, Joel Koplik
We propose to drive open microfluidic systems by shear in a covering fluid layer, e.g., oil covering water-filled chemical channels. The advantages as compared to other means of pu…
Nanoscale fluid flows in the vicinity of patterned surfaces
Marek Cieplak, Joel Koplik, Jayanth R. Banavar
Molecular dynamics simulations of dense and rarefied fluids comprising small chain molecules in chemically patterned nano-channels predict a novel switching from Poiseuille to plug…
Flow channelling in a single fracture induced by shear displacement
Harold Auradou, German Drazer, Alexandro Boschan +2
The effect on the transport properties of fractures of a relative shear displacement of rough walls with complementary self-affine surfaces has been studied experimentally…
Pearling instability of nanoscale fluid flow confined to a chemical channel
J. Koplik, T. S. Lo, M. Rauscher +1
We investigate the flow of a nano-scale incompressible ridge of low-volatility liquid along a "chemical channel": a long, straight, and completely wetting stripe embedded in a plan…
