- This paper proposes a new way of exploiting scale separation in nano devices to combine molecular dynamics with continuum fluid dynamics so that liquid flows, which are compressible at the nanoscale, can be modelled with much greater computational efficiency than previously. This paper was key to securing the £3.4M EPSRC Programme Grant EP/N016602/1 (2016-20) and was instrumental in the award of a 10-year, £1.3M RAEng Chair in Emerging Technologies for Reese (2018).
