Drop fragmentation by laser-pulse impact
Alexander L. Klein, Dmitry Kurilovich, Henri Lhuissier +4
We study the fragmentation of a liquid drop that is hit by a laser pulse. The drop expands into a thin sheet that breaks by the radial expulsion of ligaments from its rim and the n…
Growth of clogs in parallel microchannels
Alban Sauret, Katarzyna Somszor, Emmanuel Villermaux +1
During the transport of colloidal suspensions in microchannels, the deposition of particles can lead to the formation of clogs, typically at constrictions. Once a clog is formed in…
Laser impact on a drop
Alexander L. Klein, Claas Willem Visser, Wilco Bouwhuis +6
The impact of a laser pulse on a highly absorbing liquid drop can lead to a violent response: the drop is accelerated, strongly deforms, and eventually fragments. Shock waves, the…
Self-similar impulsive capillary waves on a ligament
Laurent Duchemin, Stéphane Le Dizès, Lionel Vincent +1
We study the short-time dynamics of a liquid ligament, held between two solid cylinders, when one is impulsively accelerated along its axis. A set of one-dimensional equations in t…
Drop Shaping by Laser-Pulse Impact
Alexander L. Klein, Wilco Bouwhuis, Claas Willem Visser +6
We show how the deposition of laser energy induces propulsion and strong deformation of an absorbing liquid body. Combining high speed with stroboscopic imaging, we observe that a…
