Welcome to the Micro Fluid
Mechanics Laboratory in the School of Mechanical and Aerospace
Engineering, Seoul National University. Our interests span a
range of topics that revolve around classical mechanics with
applications to micro/nanofluidics and biology. We are working
on a variety of problems including the interaction of
interfacial tension with both rigid and elastic structures, biolocomotions, and the dynamics of drops and bubbles. For
physical and mathematical understanding of the problems, we
couple the high-speed visualization technique with simple
scaling concepts, perturbation analysis, or numerical
simulations of simplified equations. We are particularly
interested in applying the novel physical processes to micro-
and nano-systems and in understanding physical mechanism
underlying biological motility and pattern formation. |
