Abstract
We aimed to determine if audible sounds could change the forces acting between charged surfaces in water and their electric double layers (EDLs). This was achieved by using an atomic force microscope to measure force-distance curves between a microsized silica particle attached to a cantilever (probe) and a silicon wafer in water in the absence and presence of sound. Sound decreased the repulsive forces acting between the probe and silicon wafer, where the range and magnitude of the forces decreased with an increase in the sound frequency from 300 to 15000 Hz. The decrease in the force range was explained by a decrease in the EDL thickness. This result was explained by (1) the shrinkage of the EDL by a high-pressure region of the sound wave, where an increased sound frequency caused the number of high-pressure regions that passed between the probe and the substrate to increase and (2) the inability of the EDL to fully re-expand to its original thickness during the time that a low-pressure region of the sound wave was applied. The decrease in the force magnitude with a sound frequency increase was explained by the increased screening of charged surfaces that accompanies a decrease in the EDL thickness. An increase in the force measurement speed caused the sound waves to reduce the repulsive forces less. A faster speed decreased the time to measure a force curve, which reduced the number of high-pressure regions of the sound wave to pass through the water between the probe and the substrate. This reduced the number of times that the EDL was compressed by the sound wave.

Abstract
Lift forces are widespread in hydrodynamics. These are typically observed for big and fast objects and are often associated with a combination of fluid inertia (i.e. large Reynolds numbers) and specific symmetry-breaking mechanisms. In contrast, the properties of viscosity-dominated (i.e. low Reynolds numbers) flows make it more difficult for such lift forces to emerge. However, the inclusion of boundary effects qualitatively changes this picture. Indeed, in the context of soft and biological matter, recent studies have revealed the emergence of novel lift forces generated by boundary softness, flow gradients and/or surface charges. The aim of the present review is to gather and analyse this corpus of literature, in order to identify and unify the questioning within the associated communities, and pave the way towards future research.

Abstract
Theoretically and experimentally, we study electroviscous phenomena resulting from charge-flow coupling in a nanoscale capillary. Our theoretical approach relies on Poisson-Boltzmann mean-field theory and on coupled linear relations for charge and hydrodynamic flows, including electro-osmosis and charge advection. With respect to the unperturbed Poiseuille flow, we define an electroviscous coupling parameter ξ, which turns out to be maximum where the film height h_{0} is comparable to the Debye screening length λ. We also present dynamic atomic force microscopy data for the viscoelastic response of a confined water film in sphere-plane geometry; our theory provides a quantitative description for the electroviscous drag coefficient and the electrostatic repulsion as a function of the film height, with the surface charge density as the only free parameter. Charge regulation sets in at even smaller distances.

Abstract
Modern lubrication systems are increasingly deploying smart (functional) materials. These respond to various external stimuli including electrical and magnetic fields, acoustics, light etc. Motivated by such developments, in the present article unsteady electro-magnetohydrodynamics squeezing flow and heat transfer in a smart ionic viscous fluid intercalated between parallel plates with zeta potential effects is examined. The proposed mathematical model of problem is formulated as a system of partial differential equations (continuity, momenta and energy). Viscous dissipation and variable thermal conductivity effects are included. Axial electrical distribution is also addressed. The governing equations are converted into ordinary differential equations via similarity transformations and then solved numerically with MATLAB software. The transport phenomena are scrutinized for both when the plates move apart or when they approach each other. Also, the impact of different parameters such squeezing number, variable thermal conductivity parameter, Prandtl number, Hartmann number, Eckert number, zeta potential parameter, electric field parameter and electroosmosis parameter on the axial velocity and fluid temperature are analysed. For varied intensities of applied plate motion, the electro-viscous effects derived from electric double-capacity flow field distortions are thoroughly studied. It has been shown that the results from the current model differ significantly from those achieved by using a standard Poisson-Boltzmann equation model. Axial velocity acceleration is induced with negative squeeze number (plates approaching,S< 0) in comparison to that of positive squeeze number (plates separating,S> 0). Velocity enhances with increasing electroosmosis parameter and zeta potential parameter. With rising values of zeta potential and electroosmosis parameter, there is a decrease in temperatures forUe> 0 for both approaching i.e. squeezing plates (S< 0) and separating (S> 0) cases. The simulations provide novel insights into smart squeezing lubrication with thermal effects and also a solid benchmark for further computational fluid dynamics investigations.

Abstract
The viscosity of polar liquids increases in an electric field because of its interaction with the dipolar molecules. This viscoelectric effect was measured for organic liquids, but for water, the most important polar liquid, where it is crucial in areas from surface potential determination to nanofluidic applications, this is very challenging, and no direct measurements have been carried out to date. Consequently, estimates of its magnitude in water vary by more than a thousandfold. Here, we use a surface force balance to measure the dynamic approach of two molecularly smooth surfaces with a uniform, controlled electric field between them across water; this is modulated by the water viscosity and hence the viscoelectric effect, enabling its magnitude to be directly determined. The viscoelectric effect concerns the increase in viscosity of a polar liquid in an electric field due to its interaction with the dipolar molecules and was first determined for polar organic liquids more than 80 y ago. For the case of water, however, the most common polar liquid, direct measurement of the viscoelectric effect is challenging and has not to date been carried out, despite its importance in a wide range of electrokinetic and flow effects. In consequence, estimates of its magnitude for water vary by more than three orders of magnitude. Here, we measure the viscoelectric effect in water directly using a surface force balance by measuring the dynamic approach of two molecularly smooth surfaces with a controlled, uniform electric field between them across highly purified water. As the water is squeezed out of the gap between the approaching surfaces, viscous damping dominates the approach dynamics; this is modulated by the viscoelectric effect under the uniform transverse electric field across the water, enabling its magnitude to be directly determined as a function of the field. We measured a value for this magnitude, which differs by one and by two orders of magnitude, respectively, from its highest and lowest previously estimated values.

Abstract
Nanofluidic systems could in principle be used to produce electricity from waste heat, but current theoretical descriptions predict a rather poor performance as compared to thermoelectric solid materials. Here we investigate the thermoelectric response of NaCl and NaI solutions confined between charged walls, using molecular dynamics simulations. We compute a giant thermoelectric response, 2 orders of magnitude larger than the predictions of standard models. We show that water excess enthalpy-neglected in the standard picture-plays a dominant role in combination with the electro-osmotic mobility of the liquid-solid interface. Accordingly, the thermoelectric response can be boosted using surfaces with large hydrodynamic slip. Overall, the heat harvesting performance of the model systems considered here is comparable to that of the best thermoelectric materials, and the fundamental insight provided by molecular dynamics suggests guidelines to further optimize the performance, opening the way to recycle waste heat using nanofluidic devices.

Abstract
The physical properties of fluids can change as they flow through confined charged solid areas, such as a charged pore or channel, allowing the transport of fluid through the channels to be controlled. The liquid flow is influenced by the electrical double layer (EDL) that is next to the charged surface. The overlap of the EDL of two nearby charged solid surfaces results in the formation of an electrostatic force. A flow will change the EDL from an equilibrium state to a non-equilibrium state, causing the forces to also change from an equilibrium (static) state to a non-equilibrium (dynamic) state. There are numerous studies that have been performed by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and surface force experiments which concern the equilibrium EDL and the equilibrium surface forces. However, there are significantly less studies concerning the non-equilibrium EDL and non-equilibrium surface forces, including the effect of a liquid flow on the EDL and the surface forces. This review will focus on how a liquid flow changes the EDL and the surface forces of charged hydrophilic solid surfaces in aqueous electrolyte solutions. Results obtained by MD simulations and surface force experiments are discussed in this review. A flow was seen to be able to distort the EDL, causing the surface forces to change. The EDL and surface forces were affected by the surface charge, the structuring ability of the liquid molecules and ions near the surfaces, the ion type and their specificity towards the surface, the ionic concentration, and the rate of flow of the liquid. The physical properties of the system were shown to change with a flow, e.g. the increase in the fluid viscosity next to a charged solid surface that accompanies a flow. The number of counterions adsorbed to a charged solid surface was also seen to affect the direction of flow in an EDL. The surface forces were shown to change with a flow due to changes in hydrodynamic and electrostatic forces. Information on the effect of the liquid flow on the EDL and surface forces will help improve applications that require fluid to be transported in a defined way through a charged solid vessel.

Abstract
Vibrational sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy is demonstrated as a fast method to quantify variations of the electric double-layer potential ϕ0 at liquid-gas interfaces. For this, mixed solutions of nonionic tetraethyleneglycol-monodecylether (C10E4) and cationic hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (C16TAB) surfactants were investigated using SFG spectroscopy and a thin-film pressure balance (TFPB). Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek analysis of disjoining pressure isotherms obtained with the TFPB technique provides complementary information on ϕ0, which we apply to validate the results from SFG spectroscopy. By using a single ϕ0 value, we can disentangle χ(2) and χ(3) contributions to the O-H stretching modes of interfacial water molecules in the SFG spectra. Having established the latter, we show that unknown double-layer potentials at the liquid-gas interface from solutions with different C16TAB/C10E4 mixing ratios can be obtained from an analysis of SFG spectra and are in excellent agreement with the complementary results from the TFPB technique.

Abstract
The research about electric demulsification of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion is not enough at present, especially compared with that about electric demulsification of water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion. As an easy and novel method, a bidirectional pulsed electric field (BPEF) was investigated to demulsify the O/W emulsion in this work. Here we report that BPEF could actuate O/W emulsion to form rotational flow and drove oil droplets to form oil-droplet chains and to coalescence. In order to interpret the mutual attraction and coalescence of oil drops in BPEF, we put forward the hypothesis that charges on an oil drop surface would redistribute in BPEF, and we built the charge redistribution model according to the adsorption phenomenon of oil droplets. The behavior of oil drops in BPEF could be successfully explained in terms of the hypothesis and the model. The charge redistribution on an oil droplet surface could be evaluated by the two parameters we proposed. An amended potential redistribution formula of an oil drop surface was also obtained according to the model. The O/W emulsions were successfully demulsified by BPEF in the experiments. It showed that BPEF could be a significant method for electric demulsification of O/W emulsions.
