A double rigidity transition rules the fate of drying colloidal drops
Milani M, Phou T, Ligoure C +2
The evaporation of drops of colloidal suspensions plays an important role in numerous contexts, such as the production of powdered dairies, the synthesis of functional supraparticl…
Instabilities in freely expanding sheets of associating viscoelastic fluids
S. Arora, A. Louhichi, D. Vlassopoulos +2
We use the impact of drops on a small solid target as a tool to investigate the behavior of viscoelastic fluids under extreme deformation rates. We study two classes of transient n…
Competition between shear and biaxial extensional viscous dissipation in the expansion dynamics of Newtonian and rheo-thinning liquid sheets
Ameur Louhichi, Carole-Ann Charles, Srishti Arora +4
When a drop of fluid hits a small solid target of comparable size, it expands radially until reaching a maximum diameter and subsequently recedes. In this work, we show that the ex…
Viscoelasticity and elastocapillarity effects in the impact of drops on a repellent surface
Carole-Ann Charles, Ameur Louhichi, Laurence ramos +1
We investigate freely expanding viscoelastic sheets. The sheets are produced by the impact of drops on a quartz plate covered with a thin layer of liquid nitrogen that suppresses s…
Spinning elastic beads: a route for simultaneous measurements of shear modulus and interfacial energy of soft materials
Alessandro Carbonaro, Kennedy-Nexon Chagua-Encarnacion, Carole-Ann Charles +4
Large deformations of soft elastic beads spinning at high angular velocity in a denser background fluid are investigated theoretically, numerically, and experimentally using millim…
Biaxial extensional viscous dissipation in sheets expansion formed by impact of drops of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids
Ameur Louhichi, Carole-Ann Charles, Ty Phou +3
We investigate freely expanding liquid sheets made of either simple Newtonian fluids or solutions of high molecular water-soluble polymer chains. A sheet is produced by the impact…
