We discuss possible definitions for a stochastic slip velocity that describes the relative motion between large particles and a turbulent flow. This definition is necessary because the slip velocity used in the standard drag model fails…
Current theories of nanochannel flow impose no upper bound on flow rates, and predict friction through nanochannels can be vanishingly small. We reassess neglecting channel entry effects in extremely long channels and find violations at the…

Some fluids exhibit anomalously low friction when flowing against a certain solid wall. To recover the viscosity of a bulk fluid, slip at the wall is usually postulated. On a macroscopic level, a large slip length can be explained as a…
Boundary conditions at a liquid-solid interface are crucial to dynamics of a liquid film coated on a fibre. Here a theoretical framework based on axisymmetric Stokes equations is developed to explore the influence of liquid-solid slip on…
The Navier boundary condition for velocity slip on flat surfaces, when expressed in tensor form, is readily extended to surfaces of any shape. We test this assertion using molecular dynamics simulations of flow in channels with flat and…
On the micro- and nanoscale, classical hydrodynamic boundary conditions such as the no-slip condition no longer apply. Instead, the flow profiles exhibit ``slip`` at the surface, which is characterized by a finite slip length (partial…
