A flexible rheometer design to measure the visco-elastic response of soft solids over a wide range of frequency

Etienne Rolley, Jacco H. Snoeijer, Bruno Andreotti

We present a flexible set-up for determining the rheology of visco-elastic materials which is based on the mechanical response of a magnet deposited at the surface of a slab of mat…

The paradox of contact angle selection on stretched soft solids

Jacco H. Snoeijer, Etienne Rolley, Bruno Andreotti

The interfacial mechanics of soft elastic networks play a central role in biological and technological contexts. Yet, effects of solid capillarity have remained controversial, prim…

Height fluctuations of a contact line: a direct measurement of the renormalized disorder correlator

Pierre Le Doussal, Kay Joerg Wiese, Sebastien Moulinet +1

We have measured the center-of-mass fluctuations of the height of a contact line at depinning for two different systems: liquid hydrogen on a rough cesium substrate and isopropanol…

The Hydraulic Jump in Liquid Helium

Etienne Rolley, Claude Guthmann, Michael S. Pettersen +1

We present the results of some experiments on the circular hydraulic jump in normal and superfluid liquid helium. The radius of the jump and the depth of the liquid outside the jum…

Width distribution of contact lines on a disordered substrate

Sebastien Moulinet, Alberto Rosso, Werner Krauth +1

We have studied the roughness of a contact line of a liquid meniscus on a disordered substrate by measuring its width distribution. The comparison between the measured width distri…

Critical Casimir effect and wetting by helium mixtures

Sebastien Balibar, Tomohiro Ueno, Takao Mizusaki +2

We have measured the contact angle of the interface of phase-separated He-He mixtures against a sapphire window. We have found that this angle is finite and does not te…
