Abstract
Electro-osmosis, the movement of a fluid with respect to solid wall when an electric field is applied tangentially to the solid wall, has been studied for many years[superscript 1]. Frequency-dependent electro-osmosis (FDE), the study of electro-osmosis when the applied electric field has a frequency component has only recently bee studied[superscript 2]. There are many potential reasons for studying frequency-dependent electro-osmosis ranging from medicine to geophysics. In medicine, electro-osmosis has been used to study a variety of human processes[superscript 3,4]. However, new areas of study may be related to electro-osmosis effects on the bodies, such as: electrical workers working in close proximity to high voltage AC electromagnetic fields, or the effects of cellular EM waves on human brains.
