Evolution of dense liquid marbles under light tapping

Amaelle Sprocq, Théo Dhoudain, Alexis Duchesne +1

Liquid marbles interface is composed by a dense network of grains trapped by capillarity at their surface. The mix of capillarity and granular character make their interfaces remar…

Static friction of liquid marbles

Yui Takai, Kei Mukoyama, Pritam Kumar Roy +4

Liquid marbles, droplets coated with a granular layer, are highly mobile as particles prevent capillary adhesion to the substrate. Yet their coating creates a static rolling fricti…

Active Learning reduces academic risk of students with non-formal reasoning skills. Evidence from an introductory physics massive course in a Chilean public university

Guillaume Lagubeau, Silvia Tecpan, Carla Hernandez

We present the findings of a pilot plan of active learning implemented in introductory physics in a Chilean public university. The model is research based as it considered a litera…

Realization of the Najafi-Golestanian microswimmer

Galien Grosjean, Maxime Hubert, Guillaume Lagubeau +1

A paradigmatic microswimmer is the three-linked-spheres model, which follows a minimalist approach for propulsion by shape shifting. As such, it has been the subject of numerous an…

Statics and dynamics of magnetocapillary bonds

Guillaume Lagubeau, Galien Grosjean, Alexis Darras +3

When ferromagnetic particles are suspended at an interface under magnetic fields, dipole-dipole interactions compete with capillary attraction. This combination of forces has recen…

Remote control of self-assembled microswimmers

Galien Grosjean, Guillaume Lagubeau, Alexis Darras +3

Physics governing the locomotion of microorganisms and other microsystems is dominated by viscous damping. An effective swimming strategy involves the non-reciprocal and periodic d…

Supershear Rayleigh waves at a soft interface

Anne Le Goff, Pablo Cobelli, Guillaume Lagubeau

We report on the experimental observation of waves at a liquid foam surface propagating faster than the bulk shear waves. The existence of such waves has long been debated, but the…

Fast and Global Measurement of Free Surface Deformations

P. Cobelli, G. Lagubeau, M. Chekroun +4

In this fluid dynamics video, we present an overview of the most important results recently obtained in our group using an optical profilometric technique that allows for single-sh…
