Abstract

A novel formulation, based on the molecular dynamics approach, has been proposed to calculate localised drag forces over nano-cylinders. The computational evidence suggests that the existing methods underestimate drag coefficients at nano-scales at least by 20-40%. These coefficients are also up to...
