Soft Condensation

Ambre Bouillant, Christopher Henkel, Uwe Thiele +2

When moist air meets a cold surface, it creates a breath figure characterized by numerous small droplets. The central question is how the vapor flux is distributed between the grow…

Collective Effects in Breath Figures

Ambre Bouillant, Jacco H. Snoeijer, Bruno Andreotti

Breath figures are the complex patterns that form when water vapor condenses into liquid droplets on a surface. The primary question concerning breath figures is how the condensing…

Dynamic solid surface tension causes droplet pinning and depinning

Mathijs van Gorcum, Bruno Andreotti, Jacco H. Snoeijer +1

The contact line of a liquid drop on a solid exerts a nanometrically sharp surface traction. This provides an unprecedented tool to study highly localised and dynamic surface defor…

Thermal fluctuations of an interface near a contact line

D. Belardinelli, M. Sbragaglia, M. Gross +1

The effect of thermal fluctuations near a contact line of a liquid interface partially wetting an impenetrable substrate is studied analytically and numerically. Promoting both the…

Moving contact line of a volatile fluid

V. Janecek, B. Andreotti, D. Prazak +2

Interfacial flows close to a moving contact line are inherently multi-scale. The shape of the interface and the flow at meso- and macroscopic scales inherit an apparent interface s…
