Proof of crossing formula for 2D percolation
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 1995-11-21)
The author`s recently conjectured expression (ibid., vol. 28, p. 1249, 1995) for Cardy`s (1992) crossing formula in 2D percolation is rewritten in terms of theta and elliptic functions and verified explicitly. Exact results ...
Universality of the excess number of clusters and the crossing probability function in three-dimensional percolation
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 1998-10-09)
Extensive Monte Carlo simulations were performed to evaluate the excess number of clusters and the crossing probability function for three-dimensional percolation on the simple cubic (s.c.), face-centred cubic (f.c.c.), ...
Mathematical modeling of drop mixing in a slit-type microchannel
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2001-09-01)
Fast solute mixing can be achieved in a microchannel by rapid unidirectional displacement of a discrete liquid drop. The recirculation streamlines created within the liquid during the drop's motion cause the solute to ...
Self-contained actuation of phase-change pistons in microchannels
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2006-04-01)
An inchworm-like self-contained actuation mechanism for phase-change pistons using a movable thermopneumatic air chamber has been demonstrated. Two phase-change pistons that enclose an air pocket between them have been ...
