Retraction dynamics of polymer-laden droplets impacting a smooth solid surface
Koji Hasegawa, Patrick Palmetshofer, Anne K. Geppert +1
Hypothesis: The presence of a polymer in a droplet plays a significant role in contact line dynamics following droplet impact onto a solid substrate. We hypothesize that the polyme…

The Role of Interfacial Tension in Direct Numerical Simulations of Drop-Film Interaction for Immiscible Fluids
Rishi Dhar, David Gösele, Paul Saumet +2
Many experimental studies have reported variations in interfacial tension. Isolating all the geometric and fluid material parameters and varying the interfacial tension can be usef…
