Sliding of liquid droplets on thin viscoelastic soft layers
Menghua Zhao, Julien Dervaux, Tetsuharu Narita +3
Soft substrates are deformed by liquid-vapor surface tension upon contact with liquid droplets, forming the well-known wetting ridge. This ridge dynamically propagates with the mov…
Morphology and stability of droplets sliding on soft viscoelastic substrates
Mathieu Oléron, Laurent Limat, Julien Dervaux +1
We show that energy dissipation partition between a liquid and a solid controls the shape and stability of droplets sliding on viscoelastic gels. When both phases dissipate energy…
Circular hydraulic jumps: where does surface tension matter?
Alexis Duchesne, Laurent Limat
Recently, an unusual scaling law has been observed in circular hydraulic jumps and has been attributed to a supposed missing term in the local energy balance of the flow [\cite{bha…
Spreading of granular suspensions on a solid surface
Menghua Zhao, Alice Pelosse, Mathieu Oléron +3
We examine the spreading of a suspension of non-Brownian spheres suspended in a Newtonian liquid on a solid substrate. We show that the spreading dynamics is well described by the…
A criterion for the pinning and depinning of an advancing contact line on a cold substrate
Rémy Herbaut, Julien Dervaux, Philippe Brunet +2
The influence of solidification on the spreading of liquids is addressed in the situation of an advancing liquid wedge on a cold substrate at , of infinite thermal condu…
Straight contact lines on a soft, incompressible solid
Laurent Limat
The deformation of a soft substrate by a straight contact line is calculated, and the result applied to a static rivulet between two parallel contact lines. The substrate is suppos…
