Example of paper abstract
An overview is given on research activities in the field of fluid components or systems built with microfabrication technologies. This review focuses on the fluidic behavior of the various devices, such as valves, pumps and flow sensors, as well as the possibilities and pitfalls related to the modeling of these devices using simple flow theory. Finally, a number of microfluidic systems are described and comments on future trends are given.

Paper Abstract In this paper the design of thermo-acoustic
refrigerators , using the linear thermo-acoustic theory, is described. Due to the large number of parameters, a choice of some parameters along with dimensionless variables will be introduced. The design strategy is a guide for the design and development of thermo-acoustic coolers. Optimization of the different parts are also given.

ii. LITERATURE REVIEW Review on previous work relating to:
Research problem: Define, Explain, Justify Methodology: Define, Explain, Justify Result: Reliability, Significance, Etc
How should it be written: Critical evaluation of writings directly related to
research Establish what is known or otherwise Identify areas of controversy Formulate questions for further research

WHY DO WE NEED LR? To find out knowledge and ideas that
are already established on a topic, including the strengths and weaknesses.
