Diffusion from particle-coated drops: the subtle role of particle size

Alexandros T. Oratis, Matteo Camagna, Timo J. J. M. van Overveld +1

Many natural and industrial systems involve particle-laden interfaces. Because interfacial particles prevent the coalescence and coarsening of drops, they hold promise for various…

Viscoelastic lubrication of a submerged cylinder sliding down an incline

Alexandros T. Oratis, Kai van den Berg, Vincent Bertin +1

Lubrication flows between two solid surfaces can be found in a variety of biological and engineering settings. In many of these systems, the lubricant exhibits viscoelastic propert…

Sticking without contact: Elastohydrodynamic adhesion

Vincent Bertin, Alexandros T. Oratis, Jacco H. Snoeijer

The adhesion between dry solid surfaces is typically governed by contact forces, involving surface forces and elasticity. For surfaces immersed in a fluid, out-of-contact adhesion…

Viscoelastic Worthington jets & droplets produced by bursting bubbles

Ayush K. Dixit, Alexandros Oratis, Konstantinos Zinelis +2

Bubble bursting and subsequent collapse of the open cavity at free surfaces of contaminated liquids can generate aerosol droplets, facilitating pathogen transport. After film ruptu…

A unifying Rayleigh-Plesset-type equation for bubbles in viscoelastic media

Alexandros T. Oratis, Kay Dijs, Guillaume Lajoinie +2

Understanding the ultrasound pressure-driven dynamics of microbubbles confined in viscoelastic materials is relevant for multiple biomedical applications, ranging from contrast-enh…

Coalescence of bubbles in a viscoelastic liquid

Alexandros T. Oratis, Vincent Bertin, Jacco H. Snoeijer

When two bubbles submerged in a liquid are brought closely together, the intermediate liquid film separating the bubbles begins to drain. Once the film ruptures, the bubbles coales…
