Preface to miscellaneous articles

The last two articles in this issue are articles that were not

published due to insufficient number of articles to build a

thematic issue. They are included here in a miscellaneous

section. The first article was to have been included in an

issue on fluid dynamics and the second was to have been

included in an issue on Functional Materials.

The article by Soujanya et al. presents a fitted finite

difference method for solving singularly perturbed two-

point boundary value problems with the boundary layer at

both ends. This method can be useful to approach fluid flow

problems at high Reynolds numbers. The second article by

Tata et al. uses dynamic light scattering (DLS) to investi-

gate liquid–liquid phase transitions in nanogels.
