Tribonucleation of bubbles
Sander Wildeman, Henri Lhuissier, Chao Sun +2
We report on the nucleation of bubbles on solids that are gently rubbed against each other in a liquid. The phenomenon is found to depend strongly on the material and roughness of…
On the spreading of impacting drops
Sander Wildeman, Claas Willem Visser, Chao Sun +1
The energy budget and dissipation mechanisms during droplet impact on solid surfaces are studied numerically and theoretically. We find that for high impact velocities and negligib…
Role of natural convection in the dissolution of sessile droplets
Erik Dietrich, Sander Wildeman, Claas Willem Visser +4
The dissolution process of small (initial (equivalent) radius mm) long-chain alcohol (of various types) sessile droplets in water is studied, disentangling diffusive and…
