Electrokinetic Particle Transport in Micro-/Nanofluidics: Direct Numerical Simulation Analysis

By Shizhi Qian and Ye Ai

This book provides a fundamental understanding of the electrokinetic particle transport in micro-/nanofluidics, involving electrophoresis, dielectrophoresis, electroosmosis, and induced-charge electroosmosis. It emphasizes the direct numerical simulation of electrokinetic particle transport phenomena, plus several supportive experimental studies. The authors use COMSOL Multiphysics(R) to conduct all the numerical simulations presented and include the corresponding script files in the book. The book is suitable as a resource for researchers in micro-/nanofluidics and as a supplementary textbook for courses in electrokinetic transport phenomena in micro-/nanofluidics.
