Active Reinforcement of Jammed Emulsions by Living Microswimmers
Marie Corpart, Hugo Le Roux, Daniel Bonn +1
We show that living microswimmers mechanically reinforce dense emulsions. Castor-oil-in-water emulsions laden with the microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii are compared in three sta…
Inelastic spreading of viscoelastic drops
Mete Abbot, Thijs Varkevisser, Manglesh Singh +3
When a liquid drop impacts a solid surface, rebound and splashing are known to be suppressed by additives that induce elastic effects; however, the influence of elasticity on the m…
A single length scale rules ballistic aggregation: travels of a droplet train
Nathan Vani, Stefan Kooij, Aritro Mukherjee +3
Ballistic aggregation is a canonical non-equilibrium process, relevant across scales from granular gases to planetary accretion. Collisions are driven by differences in velocities,…
