Surface tension and the strain-dependent topography of soft solids
Nicolas Bain, Anand Jagota, Katrina Smith-Mannschott +3
When stretched in one direction, most solids shrink in the transverse directions. In soft silicone gels, however, we observe that small-scale topographical features grow upon stret…

Measuring surface tensions of soft solids with huge contact-angle hysteresis
Jin Young Kim, Stefanie Heyden, Dominic Gerber +3
The equilibrium contact angle of a droplet resting on a solid substrate can reveal essential properties of the solid's surface. However, when the motion of a droplet on a surface s…
