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…
