Adsorption-Induced Slip Inhibition for Polymer Melts on Ideal Substrates
Mark Ilton, Thomas Salez, Paul D. Fowler +7
Hydrodynamic slip of a liquid at a solid surface represents a fundamental phenomenon in fluid dynamics that governs liquid transport at small scales. For polymeric liquids, de Genn…
Elastocapillary Levelling of Thin Viscous Films on Soft Substrates
Marco Rivetti, Vincent Bertin, Thomas Salez +6
A thin liquid film with non-zero curvature at its free surface spontaneously flows to reach a flat configuration, a process driven by Laplace pressure gradients and resisted by the…
Universal contact-line dynamics at the nanoscale
Marco Rivetti, Thomas Salez, Michael Benzaquen +2
The relaxation dynamics of the contact angle between a viscous liquid and a smooth substrate is studied at the nanoscale. Through atomic force microscopy measurements of polystyren…
Elasto-capillary meniscus: Pulling out a soft strip sticking to a liquid surface
Marco Rivetti, Arnaud Antkowiak
A liquid surface touching a solid usually deforms in a near-wall meniscus region. In this work, we replace part of the free surface with a soft polymer and examine the shape of thi…
Non-symmetric localized fold of a floating sheet
Marco Rivetti
An elastic sheet lying on the surface of a liquid, if axially compressed, shows a transition from a smooth sinusoidal pattern to a well localized fold. This wrinkle-to-fold transit…
