Interfacial Cavitation
Thomas Henzel, Japinder Nijjer, Chockalingam Senthilnathan +4
Cavitation has long been recognized as a crucial predictor, or precursor, to the ultimate failure of various materials, ranging from ductile metals to soft and biological materials…
Shaping Nanoscale Ribbons into Micro-Helices of Controllable Radius and Pitch
Lucas Prévost, Dylan M. Barber, Marine Daïeff +5
We report fabrication of highly flexible micron-sized helices from nanometer-thick ribbons. Building upon the helical coiling of such ultra-thin ribbons mediated by surface tension…
Programmed Wrapping and Assembly of Droplets with Mesoscale Polymers
Dylan M. Barber, Zhefei Yang, Lucas Prevost +4
Nature is remarkably adept at using interfaces to build structures, encapsulate reagents, and regulate biological processes. Inspired by Nature, we describe flexible polymer-based…
Size-scaling limits of impulsive elastic energy release from a resilin-like elastomer
Mark Ilton, S. M. Cox, Thijs Egelmeers +3
Elastically-driven motion has been used as a strategy to achieve high speeds in small organisms and engineered micro-robotic devices. We examine the size-scaling relations determin…
Deformation and shape of flexible, microscale helices in viscous flow
Jonathan T. Pham, Alexander Morozov, Alfred J. Crosby +2
We examine experimentally the deformation of flexible, microscale helical ribbons with nanoscale thickness subject to viscous flow in a microfluidic channel. Two aspects of flexibl…
