Dynamic equilibrium Mechanism for Surface Nanobubble Stabilization
Michael P. Brenner, Detlef Lohse
Recent experiments have convincingly demonstrated the existence of surface nanobubbles on submerged hydrophobic surfaces. However, classical theory dictates that small gaseous bubb…
On the sound of snapping shrimp
Michel Versluis, Barbara Schmitz, Anna von der Heydt +1
Fluid dynamics video: Snapping shrimp produce a snapping sound by an extremely rapid closure of their snapper claw. Our high speed imaging of the claw closure has revealed that the…
Non-Oberbeck-Boussinesq effects in turbulent thermal convection in ethane close to the critical point
Guenter Ahlers, Enrico Calzavarini, Francisco Fontenele Araujo +4
As shown in earlier work (Ahlers et al., J. Fluid Mech. 569, p.409 (2006)), non-Oberbeck Boussinesq (NOB) corrections to the center temperature in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convect…
Dynamics of the spontaneous breakdown of superhydrophobicity
C. Pirat, M. Sbragaglia, A. M. Peters +4
Drops deposited on rough and hydrophobic surfaces can stay suspended with gas pockets underneath the liquid, then showing very low hydrodynamic resistance. When this superhydrophob…
Spontaneous Breakdown of Superhydrophobicity
Mauro Sbragaglia, Alisia M. Peters, Christophe Pirat +4
In some cases water droplets can completely wet micro-structured superhydrophobic surfaces. The {\it dynamics} of this rapid process is analyzed by ultra-high-speed imaging. Depend…
Superstability of Surface Nanobubbles
Bram M. Borkent, Stephan M. Dammer, Holger Schoenherr +2
Shock wave induced cavitation experiments and atomic force microscopy measurements of flat polyamide and hydrophobized silicon surfaces immersed in water are performed. It is shown…
