A contaminant-concentration-dependent surface tension does not explain the absence of solutal Marangoni flow in evaporating droplets
Javier Martínez-Puig, Théophile Gaichies, Javier Rodríguez-Rodríguez
Theoretical models of evaporating droplets predict Marangoni flows orders of magnitude faster than those observed experimentally. While this discrepancy is often attributed to surf…

Interfacial dripping faucet: generating monodisperse liquid lenses
Lorène Champougny, Vincent Bertin, Jacco H. Snoeijer +1
We present a surface analog to a dripping faucet, where a viscous liquid slides down an immiscible meniscus. Periodic pinch-off of the dripping filament is observed, generating a s…

The Fluid Mechanics of Splatter Painting
Diego Ávila-García, Carlos Salazar-Martín, Javier Rodríguez-Rodríguez +3
In splatter painting, a collection of liquid droplets is projected onto the substrate by imposing a controlled acceleration to a paint-loaded brush. This work aims at unraveling th…
