Summary
Here are some Web sites that contain much useful information on micro- and nanofluidics. This list is not meant to be complete, and I would welcome additional information on cool Web sites that you may have. In addition, there are individual researchers' Web sites at various universities that I have left out. I have also left out individual company and publisher Web sites. Also, I have grouped these sites into categories; however, understand that in micro- and nanofluidics, this may be dangerous.
Fluid dynamics and micro- and nanofluidics
1. http://www.efluids.com/
Very informative Web site that includes many applets and demos covering fluid dynamics in general.
2. http://www.emicronano.com/
Very informative Web site that includes images, movies, demos, pictures, and solver tools for micro- and nanofluids. Run by the same people as efluids, this Web site concentrates on smaller-scale fluids.
3. http://www.lab-on-a-chip.com/
This site is an RSS feed site that has many current news headlines and articles from university labs covering microfluidics, microarrays, and labson- a-chip. It also has a list of upcoming events regarding microfluidics and other information in the field.
4. http://www.rsc.org/Publishing/Journals/lc/Chips and Tips/index.asp
This is a Q&A Web site dedicated to answering questions and providing information for those interested in labs-on-a-chip.
5. http://www.aip.org/tip/INPHFA/vol-9/iss-4/p14.html
This is a feature article from The Industrial Physicist that explains the explosion of micro- and nanofluidics technologies in recent years. The site describes several technologies benefitting from new discoveries in the microfluidics area and discusses the differences between micro- and nanofluidics.
