Evaporation of liquid coating a fiber
Marie Corpart, Julien Dervaux, Christophe Poulard +2
We investigate theoretically and numerically the diffusion-limited evaporation of a liquid deposited on a fiber in two configurations: a sleeve and a axisymmetric barrel-shaped dro…
Nonlinear force balance at moving contact lines
Matthieu Roché, Laurent Limat, Julien Dervaux
The spreading of a liquid over a solid material is a key process in a wide range of applications. While this phenomenon is well understood when the solid is undeformable, its "soft…
Corners in soft solids behave as defects in crystals
Robin Masurel, Matthieu Roché, Laurent Limat +2
All phases of matter, solid, liquid or gas, present some excess energy, compared to their bulk, at their interfaces with other materials. This excess of energy, known as the surfac…
Diffusiophoretic manipulation of particles in a drop deposited on a hydrogel
François Boulogne, Sangwoo Shin, Julien Dervaux +2
We report an experimental study on the manipulation of colloidal particles in a drop sitting on a hydrogel. The manipulation is achieved by diffusiophoresis, which describes a dire…
