Coalescence of viscoelastic sessile drops: the small and large contact angle limits
Paul R. Kaneelil, Kazuki Tojo, Palas Kumar Farsoiya +2
The coalescence and breakup of drops are classic examples of flows that feature singularities. The behavior of viscoelastic fluids near these singularities is particularly intrigui…
Size Amplification of Jet Drops due to Insoluble Surfactants
Jun Eshima, Tristan Aurégan, Palas Kumar Farsoiya +3
Surface bubbles in the environment or engineering configurations, such as the ocean-atmosphere interface, sparkling wine, or during volcanic eruptions typically live on contaminate…
Hydrodynamics of molecular rotors in lipid membranes
Vinny C. Suja, Naomi Oppenheimer, Howard A. Stone
Molecular rotors form twisted conformations upon photoexcitation, with their fluorescent relaxation time serving as a measure of viscosity. They have been used to assess membrane v…
The 2024 Motile Active Matter Roadmap
Gerhard Gompper, Howard A. Stone, Christina Kurzthaler +29
Activity and autonomous motion are fundamental aspects of many living and engineering systems. Here, the scale of biological agents covers a wide range, from nanomotors, cytoskelet…
