Solid Capillarity: When and How does Surface Tension Deform Soft Solids?
Bruno Andreotti, Oliver Baeumchen, Francois Boulogne +6
Soft solids differ from stiff solids in an important way: their surface stresses can drive large deformations. Based on a topical workshop held in the Lorentz Center in Leiden, thi…
Universal contact-line dynamics at the nanoscale
Marco Rivetti, Thomas Salez, Michael Benzaquen +2
The relaxation dynamics of the contact angle between a viscous liquid and a smooth substrate is studied at the nanoscale. Through atomic force microscopy measurements of polystyren…
Influence of Slip on the Plateau-Rayleigh Instability on a Fibre
Sabrina Haefner, Michael Benzaquen, Oliver Baümchen +6
The Plateau-Rayleigh instability of a liquid column underlies a variety of fascinating phenomena that can be observed in everyday life. In contrast to the case of a free liquid cyl…
