Slow Kinetics of Capillary Condensation in Confined Geometry: Experiment and Theory
F. Restagno, L. Bocquet, J. Crassous +1
When two solid surfaces are brought in contact, water vapor present in the ambient air may condense in the region of the contact to form a liquid bridge connecting the two surfaces…

Humidity Effects and Aging Behavior in Granular Media
F. Restagno, H. Gayvallet, L. Bocquet +1
We present a study of humidity effects on the maximum stability angle in granular media. We show that a granular medium of small glass beads exhibits aging properties : the first a…
