Comments Regarding my Fluidics and Microfluidics Design and Analysis Work:

During the seven years I worked as a fuel cell engineer at Neah Power Systems, I became a dedicated student of fluid dynamics, both at the bench and using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) method with flexPDE and Comsol solvers.  My work has included designing, testing and analyzing a variety of fluidic devices and scenarios.
 
As I gradually grew more competent in this area of work, I learned how to model two phase flow and "bubbly" fluid flow in homogeneously reacting porous-media flow regions.
