Droplet on a sugar fiber
Stéphane Dorbolo, Floriane Weyer, Alexandre Delory +2
The motion of a water droplet on a single vertical sugar fiber is analyzed. The fiber is positioned vertically, with the droplet placed at its pending end. If the capillary force e…
Magnetoelastic instability in soft thin films
M. Poty, F. Weyer, G. Grosjean +2
Ferromagnetic particles are incorporated in a thin soft elastic matrix. A lamella, made of this smart material, is studied experimentally and modeled. We show herein that thin film…
Drop on a Bent Fibre
Zhao Pan, Floriane Weyer, Williams G. Pitt +2
Inspired by the huge droplets attached on cypress tree leaf tips after rain, we find that a bent fibre can hold significantly more water in the corner than a horizontally placed fi…
Compound droplets on fibers
Floriane Weyer, Marouen Ben Said, Johannes Hötzer +4
Droplets on fibers have been extensively studied in the recent years. Although the equilibrium shapes of simple droplets on fibers are well established, the situation becomes more…
Compound droplet manipulations on fiber arrays
Floriane Weyer, Marjorie Lismont, Laurent Dreesen +1
Recent works demonstrated that fiber arrays may constitue the basis of an open digital microfluidics. Various processes, such as droplet motion, fragmentation, trapping, release, m…
Magnetocapillary Swimmers
Maxime Hubert, Galien Grosjean, Yves-Eric Corbisier +4
We present an experiment where three mesoscopic soft ferromagnetic beads are placed onto a liquid surface and submitted to the influence of magnetic fields. A vertical magnetic fie…
