Universal Scaling of Polygonal Desiccation Crack Patterns
Xiaolei Ma, Janna Lowensohn, Justin C. Burton
Polygonal desiccation crack patterns are commonly observed in natural systems. Despite their quotidian nature, it is unclear whether similar crack patterns which span orders of mag…

Self-organized oscillations of Leidenfrost drops
Xiaolei Ma, Justin C. Burton
In the Leidenfrost effect, a thin layer of evaporated vapor forms between a liquid and a hot solid. The complex interactions between the solid, liquid, and vapor phases can lead to…

Precursors to Molecular Slip on Smooth Hydrophobic Surfaces
Justin E. Pye, Clay E. Wood, Justin C. Burton
Experiments and simulations suggest that simple liquids may experience slip while flowing near a smooth, hydrophobic surface. Here we show how precursors to molecular slip can be o…
