The hidden side of paintbrushes: a geometry shaped by power laws
Raphaelle Taub, Jérôme Crassous, Thomas Salez +2
Since prehistoric times, painters have used brush-like tools made from animal and plant materials to apply pigments to rock surfaces. Over time, techniques for creating brushes evo…
Quasi-crystalline order in vibrated granular matter
Andrea Plati, Raphael Maire, Etienne Fayen +4
Quasi-crystals are aperiodic structures that present crystallographic properties which are not compatible with that of a single unit cell. Their revolutionary discovery in a metall…
Analytical prediction of the temperature and the lifetime of an evaporating spherical droplet
Marie Corpart, Frédéric Restagno, François Boulogne
In this paper, we propose to predict analytically the temperature of an evaporating spherical droplet. To do so, we first review, from data in the literature, the effect of tempera…
Near surface concentration profile of sheared semi-dilute polymer solutions
Suzanne Lafon, Tiago Outerelo-Corvo, Marion Grzelka +5
Controlling the structure of polymer solutions near a solid surface is crucial for many industrial processes, as it significantly impacts solution flow and influences slip at the i…
Coffee stain effect on a fibre from axisymmetric droplets
Marie Corpart, Frédéric Restagno, François Boulogne
The so-called coffee stain effect has been intensively studied over the past decades, but most of the studies are focused on sessile droplets. In this paper, we analyse the origin…
Measurement of the temperature decrease in evaporating soap films
François Boulogne, Frédéric Restagno, Emmanuelle Rio
Recent advances have demonstrated that evaporation can play a significant role on soap film stability, which is a key concern in many industrial areas but also for children playing…
