Spontaneous epicuticular charging affects droplet dynamics on living leaves
Mihir Durve, Serena Armiento, Benham Kamare +3
How water droplets move and slide on leaves influences plant ecophysiological and abiotic interactions, as well as the design of advanced bio-inspired wetting materials. Despite cr…

Representation of Typical Droplet Shapes in 2D Latent Space
Mihir Durve, Jean-Michel Tucny Andrea Montessori, Marco Lauricella +1
In this study, we investigate the clustering of 5000 droplets, each originating from one of five distinct droplet classes, each representing a unique geometry. The shape coordinate…

Minimal droplet shape representation in experimental microfluidics using Fourier series and autoencoders
Mihir Durve, Jean-Michel Tucny, Sibilla Orsini +6
We introduce a two-step, fully reversible process designed to project the outer shape of a generic droplet onto a lower-dimensional space. The initial step involves representing th…
