Deformation and relaxation of viscous thin films under bouncing drops
Srinath Lakshman, Walter Tewes, Kirsten Harth +2
Thin, viscous liquid films subjected to impact events can deform. Here we investigate free surface oil film deformations that arise due to the air pressure buildup under the impact…
Drop Impact on Hot Plates: Contact times, Lift-off and the Lamella Rupture
Sang-Hyeon Lee, Kirsten Harth, Maaike Rump +4
When a liquid drop impacts on a heated substrate, it can remain deposited, or violently boil in contact, or lift off with or without ever touching the surface. The latter is known…
Self-Similar Liquid Lens Coalescence
Michiel A. Hack, Walter Tewes, Qingguang Xie +4
A basic feature of liquid drops is that they can merge upon contact to form a larger drop. In spite of its importance to various applications, drop coalescence on pre-wetted substr…
Marangoni flow in freely suspended liquid films
Torsten Trittel, Kirsten Harth, Christoph Klopp +1
We demonstrate controlled material transport driven by temperature gradients in thin freely suspended smectic films. The films with submicrometer thicknesses and lateral extensions…
