Wetting controlled boiling at the nanoscale
Oscar Gutiéerrez-Varela, Julien Lombard, Thierry Biben +2
Boiling is the out-of-equilibrium transition which occurs when a liquid is heated above its vaporization temperature. At the nanoscale, boiling may be triggered by irradiated nanop…
On the crystallization Kinetics in Natural Rubber
Rabia Laghmach, Nicolas Candau, Laurent Chazeau +1
In this article, we introduce a framework to investigate the growth of nano-crystallites in a polymer matrix numerically. This framework combines the Flory theory of entropic elast…
Strong and fast rising pressure waves emitted by plasmonic vapor nanobubbles
Julien Lombard, Julien Lam, Francois Detcheverry +2
Plasmonic vapour nanobubbles are currently considered for a wide variety of applications ranging from solar energy harvesting and photoacoustic imaging to nanoparticle-assisted can…
New analytical progress in the theory of vesicles under linear flow
Alexander Farutin, Thierry Biben, Chaouqi Misbah
Vesicles are becoming a quite popular model for the study of red blood cells (RBCs). This is a free boundary problem which is rather difficult to handle theoretically. Quantitative…
Numerical study of 3D vesicles under flow: discovery of new peculiar behaviors
Thierry Biben, Alexander Farutin, Chaouqi Misbah
The study of vesicles under flow, a model system for red blood cells (RBCs), is an essential step in understanding various intricate dynamics exhibited by RBCs in vivo and in vitro…
Wetting on Nanorough Surfaces
Thierry Biben, Laurent Joly
We present in this Letter a free-energy approach to the dynamics of a fluid near a nanostructured surface. The model accounts both for the static phase equilibrium in the vicinity…
