Butter on a hot pan: self-regulating dynamics of melt-lubricated sliding
Edoardo Bellincioni, Simon Biermann, Jacco H. Snoeijer +2
When solids melt while sliding down heated inclines, their motion is governed by a complex coupling between heat transfer, phase change, gravity and viscous dissipation. Despite re…
Soft Condensation
Ambre Bouillant, Christopher Henkel, Uwe Thiele +2
When moist air meets a cold surface, it creates a breath figure characterized by numerous small droplets. The central question is how the vapor flux is distributed between the grow…
Collective Effects in Breath Figures
Ambre Bouillant, Jacco H. Snoeijer, Bruno Andreotti
Breath figures are the complex patterns that form when water vapor condenses into liquid droplets on a surface. The primary question concerning breath figures is how the condensing…
Interfacial dripping faucet: generating monodisperse liquid lenses
Lorène Champougny, Vincent Bertin, Jacco H. Snoeijer +1
We present a surface analog to a dripping faucet, where a viscous liquid slides down an immiscible meniscus. Periodic pinch-off of the dripping filament is observed, generating a s…
A unifying Rayleigh-Plesset-type equation for bubbles in viscoelastic media
Alexandros T. Oratis, Kay Dijs, Guillaume Lajoinie +2
Understanding the ultrasound pressure-driven dynamics of microbubbles confined in viscoelastic materials is relevant for multiple biomedical applications, ranging from contrast-enh…
Viscoelastic wetting: Cox-Voinov theory with normal stress effects
Minkush Kansal, Vincent Bertin, Charu Datt +2
The classical Cox-Voinov theory of contact line motion provides a relation between the macroscopically observable contact angle, and the microscopic wetting angle as a function of…
