When does an impacting drop stop bouncing?
Vatsal Sanjay, Pierre Chantelot, Detlef Lohse
Non-wetting substrates allow impacting liquid drops to spread, recoil, and takeoff, provided they are not too heavy (Biance et al. 2006) or too viscous (Jha et al. 2020). In this a…
Drop impact on viscous liquid films
Vatsal Sanjay, Srinath Lakshman, Pierre Chantelot +2
When a liquid drop falls on a solid substrate, the air layer in between them delays the occurrence of liquid--solid contact. For impacts on smooth substrates, the air film can even…
Taylor-Culick retractions and the influence of the surroundings
Vatsal Sanjay, Uddalok Sen, Pallav Kant +1
When a freely suspended liquid film ruptures, it retracts spontaneously under the action of surface tension. If the film is surrounded by air, the retraction velocity is known to a…
Impact forces of water drops falling on superhydrophobic surfaces
Bin Zhang, Vatsal Sanjay, Songlin Shi +4
A falling liquid drop, after impact on a rigid substrate, deforms and spreads, owing to the normal reaction force. Subsequently, if the substrate is non-wetting, the drop retracts…
