Instabilities in freely expanding sheets of associating viscoelastic fluids
S. Arora, A. Louhichi, D. Vlassopoulos +2
We use the impact of drops on a small solid target as a tool to investigate the behavior of viscoelastic fluids under extreme deformation rates. We study two classes of transient n…
Competition between shear and biaxial extensional viscous dissipation in the expansion dynamics of Newtonian and rheo-thinning liquid sheets
Ameur Louhichi, Carole-Ann Charles, Srishti Arora +4
When a drop of fluid hits a small solid target of comparable size, it expands radially until reaching a maximum diameter and subsequently recedes. In this work, we show that the ex…
Viscoelasticity and elastocapillarity effects in the impact of drops on a repellent surface
Carole-Ann Charles, Ameur Louhichi, Laurence ramos +1
We investigate freely expanding viscoelastic sheets. The sheets are produced by the impact of drops on a quartz plate covered with a thin layer of liquid nitrogen that suppresses s…
Impact of the protein composition on the structure and viscoelasticity of polymer-like gluten gels
Laurence Ramos, Amélie Banc, Ameur Louhichi +6
We investigate the structure of gluten polymer-like gels in a binary mixture of water/ethanol, v/v, a good solvent for gluten proteins. Gluten comprises two main families o…
