Friction, Free Axes of Rotation and Entropy
Alexander Kazachkov, Victor Multanen, Viktor Danchuk +2
Friction forces acting on rotators may promote their alignment and therefore eliminate degrees of freedom in their movement. The alignment of rotators by friction force was demonst…
Paradoxical Coffee-Stain Effect Driven by the Marangoni Flow Observed on Oil-Infused Surfaces
Gilad Chaniel, Mark Frenkel, Victor Multanen +1
Formation of coffee stain deposits under evaporation of droplets containing aqueous solution of salts placed on silicone-oil impregnated substrates was observed. The formation of r…
Camphor-Engine-Driven Micro-Boat Guides Evolution of Chemical Gardens
Mark Frenkel, Victor Multanen, Roman Grynyov +3
A micro-boat self-propelled by a camphor engine, carrying seed crystals of FeCl3, promoted the evolution of chemical gardens when placed on the surface of aqueous solutions of pota…
Self-Propulsion of a Metallic Superoleophobic Micro-Boat
Albina Musin, Roman Grynyov, Mark Frenkel +1
The self-propulsion of a heavy, superoleophobic, metallic micro-boat carrying a droplet of various aqueous alcohol solutions as a fuel tank is reported. The micro boat is driven by…
Self-Propelling Rotator Driven by Soluto-Capillary Marangoni Flows
Mark Frenkel, Gene Whyman, Evgeny Shulzinger +2
The self-propelled, longstanding rotation of the polymer tubing containing camphor continuing for dozens of hours is reported. The rotator is driven by the solutocapillary Marangon…
Under-liquid Self-Assembly of Submerged Buoyant Polymer Particles
Victor Multanen, Roman Pogreb, Yelena Bormashenko +4
The self-assembly of submerged cold-plasma-treated polyethylene beads is reported. The plasma-treated immersed millimetrically-sized polyethylene beads formed well-ordered 2D quasi…
