They 3D-printed a series of "biomimetic pipes ... who more than a century ago patented the Tesla valve, a one-way fluid flow device with no moving parts. "You don't get to beat Tesla every ...

They focused on creating pumps and valves that could precisely control and manipulate fluid flow, allowing for the development of reliable microfluidic devices. In 1984, Charles Hull invented ...

Researchers at Purdue University say they developed a new method to fabricate microfluidic devices quickly and economically.

Researchers improve heat exchanger performance with 3D printing - outperforming traditional designs by 30% to 50%.

An important observation is that fluid flow is always irreversible. It is irreversible because fluids have viscosity, and whenever velocity gradients appear in the flow there will be friction and ...

thermoelectric forces cause a fluid flow that helps to stabilise the hole so that it resembles an 'I' shape, with no tail to break off when it ripples." In laser-based 3D printing of metal alloys ...
