Active Reinforcement of Jammed Emulsions by Living Microswimmers
Marie Corpart, Hugo Le Roux, Daniel Bonn +1
We show that living microswimmers mechanically reinforce dense emulsions. Castor-oil-in-water emulsions laden with the microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii are compared in three sta…

Thermal effects on the lifetime of evaporating drops on fibers
Marie Corpart, Frédéric Restagno, François Boulogne
We present an experimental study on the evaporation of drops on fibers. More specifically, we focus on the droplet lifetime both in quiescent air and in an air flow of constant vel…

Drop-drop coalescence: a simple crossover function between inertial and viscous dynamics
Kaili Xie, Marie Corpart, Antoine Deblais +1
The coalescence of liquid drops is a fundamental process that remains incompletely understood, particularly in the intermediate regimes where capillary, viscous, and inertial force…
