    Abstract
    Too much effort has been done for manipulating individual atoms, using nano-manipulators and Scanning Tunneling Microscopes (STM). On the other hand, characterization and manipulation of nano-flows is of great concern. In the current work a molecular valve has been considered, which is made up of six atoms placed on the circumstance of a circle. A fuzzy controller has been designed for controlling the diameter of this molecular valve. The designed fuzzy controller used singleton fuzzifier, Mamdani inference engine, center average defuzzifier and exponential membership functions. A model based on the classical Molecular Dynamics (MD) is used for modeling the nano-system and passing the states...
