Patterning droplets with durotaxis
Robert W. Style, Yonglu Che, Su Ji Park +8
Numerous cell-types have shown a remarkable ability to detect and move along gradients in stiffness of an underlying substrate -- a process known as durotaxis. The mechanisms under…
Grain boundary melting in ice
E. S. Thomson, Hendrik Hansen-Goos, L. A. Wilen +1
We describe an optical scattering study of grain boundary premelting in water ice. Ubiquitous long ranged attractive polarization forces act to suppress grain boundary melting wher…
Universal deformation of soft substrates near a contact line and the direct measurement of solid surface stresses
Robert W. Style, Yonglu Che, John. S. Wettlaufer +2
Droplets deform soft substrates near their contact lines. Using confocal microscopy, we measure the deformation of silicone gel substrates due to glycerol and fluorinated-oil dropl…
Convergence of Goal-Oriented Adaptive Finite Element Methods for Nonsymmetric Problems
Michael Holst, Sara Pollock
In this article we develop convergence theory for a class of goal-oriented adaptive finite element algorithms for second order nonsymmetric linear elliptic equations. In particular…
The Deformation of an Elastic Substrate by a Three-Phase Contact Line
Elizabeth R. Jerison, Ye Xu, Larry A. Wilen +1
Young's classic analysis of the equilibrium of a three-phase contact line ignores the out-of-plane component of the liquid-vapor surface tension. While it has long been appreciated…
Ultra-long range correlations of the dynamics of jammed soft matter
Simona Maccarrone, Giovanni Brambilla, Olivier Pravaz +8
We use Photon Correlation Imaging, a recently introduced space-resolved dynamic light scattering method, to investigate the spatial correlation of the dynamics of a variety of jamm…
