Liquid-grain mixing suppresses droplet spreading and splashing during impact
Song-Chuan Zhao, Rianne de Jong, Devaraj van der Meer
Would a raindrop impacting on a coarse beach behave differently from that impacting on a desert of fine sand? We study this question by a series of model experiments, where the pac…
Crater formation during raindrop impact on sand
Rianne de Jong, Song-Chuan Zhao, Devaraj van der Meer
After a raindrop impacts on a granular bed, a crater is formed as both drop and target deform. After an initial, transient, phase in which the maximum crater depth is reached, the…
Raindrop impact on sand: a dynamic explanation of crater morphologies
Song-Chuan Zhao, Rianne de Jong, Devaraj van der Meer
As a droplet impacts on a granular substrate, both the intruder and the target deform, during which the liquid may penetrate into the substrate. {These three aspects together disti…
Exploring droplet impact near a millimetre-sized hole: comparing a closed pit with an open-ended pore
Rianne de Jong, Oscar R. Enríquez, Devaraj van der Meer
We investigate drop impact dynamics near both closed pits and open- ended pores experimentally. The resulting impact phenomena differ greatly for a pit or a pore. For the first, we…
