Fundamentals and Transport Properties of Nanofluids S M Sohel Murshed University of Lisbon, Portugal Focussing on the emerging field of nanofluids, this book covers their preparation, stability, thermal and rheological properties, to performance characterization and their advanced applications.Combining theoretical, experimental and numerical research to elucidate underlying mechanisms of thermal transport in nanofluids, this book is a must-have for those in soft matter and mechanical and chemical engineering departments. Soft Matter in Plants From Biophysics to Biomimetics Kaare Jensen Technical University of Denmark, Denmark | Yoël Forterre CNRS Aix- Marseille University, France Plants offer some of the most elegant applications of soft matter principles in Nature. Understanding the interplay between chemistry, physics, biology, and fluid mechanics is critical to forecast plant behaviour, which is necessary for agriculture and environmental science. The understanding also lends itself to the discovery of new biomimetic applications. Starting with fundamental concepts, this book then dives into research topics, such as drought and disease, providing the reader with a concise, expert introduction to the field.

Hans-Juergen Butt Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Germany | Ian W Hamley University of Reading, UK | Howard A Stone Princeton University, USA | Amy Shen Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology, Japan | Karen Edler University of Bath, UK With contributions from experts in the field, the books in this series provide an essential overview of the latest developments in soft matter research. Each title covers a specific aspect of soft matter, from the fundamental concepts of soft matter systems to the diverse applications across different disciplines. The books are suitable for advanced undergraduate students, postgraduate students and professional researchers working in soft matter science and related fields. Bioactive Delivery Systems for Lipophilic Nutraceuticals Formulation, Fabrication, and Application Ming Miao Jiangnan University, China | Long Chen Jiangnan University, China | David McClements University of Massachusetts, USA Lipophilic nutraceuticals include vitamins (A, C and E), carotenoids and flavanoids. This book reviews the current bioactive delivery systems for lipophilic nutraceuticals, and introduces their mechanisms, preparation methods, and application range. Drying of Complex Fluid Drops Fundamentals and Applications David Brutin Aix-Marseille University, France | Khelil Sefiane University of Edinburgh, UK Addressing the fundamental underpinnings of wetting, spreading and drying, this book then takes the reader through key applications grouped into themes including, colloidal droplets (used in printing), surfactants (agriculture and pesticides), and biological (e.g. bloodstain analysis for forensics). With a section on modelling and simulation to balance experiment with computational tools, this book will appeal to anyone working in complex fluids across classical fluid mechanics, soft matter, and chemical, biological and mechanical engineering.
