A new dielectrophoretic particle separation method is demonstrated and examined in the
following experimental study. Current electrodeless dielectrophoretic (DEP) separation …

This paper presents the design and testing results of an electrothermally driven MEMS (microelectromechanical
systems) actuator. Different from conventional uni-directional U-beam …

This paper presents the first experimental evidence on electroosmotic flow at a liquid–air
interface. A PDMS microchannel with an opening to air was created to allow for the formation of …

The purpose of this study is to investigate electro-osmotic flow in a free surface-guided
microchannel. Although multiphase microfluidics has attracted interests over the past few years, …

The characteristics of electroosmotic flow in a cylindrical microchannel with non-uniform
zeta potential distribution are investigated in this paper. Two-dimensional full Navier–Stokes …

Creation of concentration gradients is important in the study of biological and chemical
processes that are sensitive to concentration variations. This paper presents a simple method to …

There is a myriad of financial anomalies in the cross-section of equity returns. They have been
widely studied in the literature, which gives investors a large choice in terms of investment …

An electrokinetically-driven microfluidic chip was developed to realize beads-based solid-phase
extraction (SPE) of amino acids. This chip uses a two-level (deep/shallow) poly(…

Concentration gradient in a chamber appended to a microchannel is important to cell-movement
control and to the concentration-gradient based assays on Lab-on-a-Chip devises. In …

Since the early 2000s, interest in risk-based rules has grown as the asset management
industry adopted these allocation methods to maximize diversification benefits, with the hope of …
