Relaxation and Recovery in Hydrogel Friction on Smooth Surfaces
Brady Wu, Joshua Méndez Harper, Justin C. Burton
\textbf{Background} Hydrogels are crosslinked polymer networks that can absorb and retain a large fraction of liquid. Near a critical sliding velocity, hydrogels pressed against sm…
The Minimum Leidenfrost Temperature on Smooth Surfaces
Dana Harvey, Joshua Mendez Harper, Justin C. Burton
During the Leidenfrost effect, a thin insulating vapor layer separates an evaporating liquid from a hot solid. Here we demonstrate that Leidenfrost vapor layers can be sustained at…
Pore-size dependence and slow relaxation of hydrogel friction on smooth surfaces
Nicholas L. Cuccia, Suraj Pothineni, Brady Wu +2
Hydrogel consists of a crosslinked polymer matrix imbibed with a solvent such as water at volume fractions that can exceed 90\%. They are important in many scientific and engineeri…
How to make a giant bubble
Stephen Frazier, Xinyi Jiang, Justin C. Burton
Using mixtures of soap, water, and long chain polymers, free-floating soap bubbles can be formed with volumes approaching 100 m. Here we investigate how such thin films are cre…
Tuning contact line dynamics and deposition patterns in volatile liquid mixtures
Asher P. Mouat, Clay E. Wood, Justin E. Pye +1
The spreading of a pure, volatile liquid on a wettable substrate has been studied in extensive detail. Here we show that the addition of a miscible, non-volatile liquid can strongl…
Intermittent "Turbulence" in a Many-body System
Guram Gogia, Wentao Yu, Justin C. Burton
In natural settings, intermittent dynamics are ubiquitous and often arise from a coupling between external driving and spatial heterogeneities. A well-known example is the generati…
