Wave Resistance for Stochastic Motion at Interfaces

Maxence Arutkin, Shlomi Reuveni, Elie Raphael

Wave resistance is the drag generated by the wave radiation that a source moving at a fluid interface sustains. Under stochastic trajectories, the mean drag is controlled by the en…

On the bridge hypothesis in the glass transition of freestanding polymer films

Haggai Bonneau, Maxence Arutkin, Rainni Chen +3

Freestanding thin polymer films with high molecular weights exhibit an anomalous decrease in the glass-transition temperature with film thickness. Specifically, in such materials,…

Unsteady Wave Drag on a Disturbance Moving Along an Arbitrary Trajectory

Lucas Gierczak, Assil Fadle, Maxence Arutkin +2

We derive analytical formulas for the wake and wave drag of a disturbance moving arbitrarily at the air-water interface. We show that, provided a constant velocity is reached in fi…

Cooperative strings and glassy dynamics in various confined geometries

Maxence Arutkin, Elie Raphaël, James Forrest +1

Previously, we developed a minimal model based on random cooperative strings for the relaxation of supercooled liquids in the bulk and near free interfaces, and we recovered some k…

Unsteady wave pattern generation by water striders

Thomas Steinmann, Maxence Arutkin, Précillia Cochard +3

We perform an experimental and theoretical study of the wave pattern generated by the leg strokes of water striders during a propulsion cycle. Using the synthetic Schlieren method,…

Elastocapillary Levelling of Thin Viscous Films on Soft Substrates

Marco Rivetti, Vincent Bertin, Thomas Salez +6

A thin liquid film with non-zero curvature at its free surface spontaneously flows to reach a flat configuration, a process driven by Laplace pressure gradients and resisted by the…

Elastohydrodynamic wake and wave resistance

Maxence Arutkin, René Ledesma-Alonso, Thomas Salez +1

The dynamics of a thin elastic sheet lubricated by a narrow layer of liquid is relevant to various situations and length scales. In the continuity of our previous work on viscous w…

Cooperative strings in glassy nanoparticles

Maxence Arutkin, Elie Raphaël, James A. Forrest +1

Motivated by recent experimental results on glassy polymer nanoparticles, we develop a minimal theoretical framework for the glass transition in spherical confinement. This is acco…
