Sommario/riassunto |
|
For engineers interested in working in the area of microfluidics, it is critical to have a solid understanding of how fluid flow in microchannels and devices is driven by pressure differences. This cutting-edge resource provides you with that essential knowledge. Offering you comprehensive and up-to-date details on all aspects of the subject, Pressure Driven Microfluidics presents the basic laws of fluid flow, and goes on to describe sophisticated devices like fluidic amplifiers and oscillators. Moreover, you get in-depth coverage of the various principles of signal and power transformations b |
