Similarity solutions in elastohydrodynamic bouncing

Vincent Bertin

We investigate theoretically and numerically the impact of an elastic sphere on a rigid wall in a viscous fluid. Our focus is on the dynamics of the contact, employing the soft lub…

Unsteady drag force on an immersed sphere oscillating near a wall

Zaicheng Zhang, Vincent Bertin, Martin Essink +6

The unsteady hydrodynamic drag exerted on an oscillating sphere near a planar wall is addressed experimentally, theoretically, and numerically. The experiments are performed by usi…

Coalescence of bubbles in a viscoelastic liquid

Alexandros T. Oratis, Vincent Bertin, Jacco H. Snoeijer

When two bubbles submerged in a liquid are brought closely together, the intermediate liquid film separating the bubbles begins to drain. Once the film ruptures, the bubbles coales…

Mechanical response of a thick poroelastic gel in contactless colloidal-probe rheology

Caroline Kopecz-Muller, Vincent Bertin, Elie Raphael +2

When a rigid object approaches a soft material in a viscous fluid, hydrodynamic stresses arise in the lubricated contact region and deform the soft material. The elastic deformatio…

Nanoparticle Taylor dispersion near charged surfaces with an open boundary

Alexandre Vilquin, Vincent Bertin, Elie Raphaël +3

The dispersive spreading of microscopic particles in shear flows is influenced both by advection and thermal motion. At the nanoscale, interactions between such particles and their…

Enhanced Dip Coating on a Soft Substrate

Vincent Bertin, Jacco Snoeijer, Elie Raphaël +1

A solid, withdrawn from a liquid bath, entrains a thin liquid film. This simple process, first described by Landau, Levich and Derjaguin (LLD), is commonly observed in everyday lif…
