Editorial: Nanofluidics: computational methods and applications

This Research Topic from Frontiers in Nanotechnology, “Nanofluidics: Computational Methods and Applications”, presents computational, analytical, simulation and experimental techniques aimed at advancing our understanding of nanofluidic phenomena and paving the way for novel applications that can play a leading role in today’s technology. With a Research Topic of four studies, the reader will find i) an interesting paper presenting the novel use of single-layer MoS2 nanopores as sensors for the identification of biomarkers, ii) a seminal paper using various machine learning and deep learning methods to reproduce particle trajectories from molecular dynamics simulations taking into account physical laws, iii) a new paper investigating the mechanisms of heat transfer in a vertical double-passage channel with a permeable fluid and, iv) a significant study on the quantification of hydrophobicity in nanoparticle systems with environmental considerations.
