    • Micro Programmable Object Navigation Gadget (micro-PONG) for Studying Electroosmotic Flow in PDMS Microchannel 
      Rohrman, Brittany Ann (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2009-04-20)
      Precise control of fluid delivery in analytical devices may be achieved by harnessing electroosmotic flow (EOF) in oxidized poly(dimethylsiloxane) microfluidic channels fabricated via soft lithography. However, the ...
    • Nonlinear Induced-charge Electrokinetics 
      Wu, Zhemin (2008-12-06)
      Department: Mechanical Engineering
      This dissertation presents the study of non-linear induced-charge electrokinetic phenomena and the corresponding applications. The study shows that a nonlinear induced surface charge distribution is immediately caused when ...
