Investigation of the Impact of Cold Plasma Treatment on the Wettability of Medical Grade Polyvinylchloride
Edward Bormashenko, Irina Legchenkova, Shiri Navon-Venezia +2
The impact of the Corona, dielectric barrier discharge and low pressure radiofrequency air plasmas on the wettability of the medical grade polyvinylchloride was investigated. Coron…
Voronoi Diagrams Generated by the Archimedes Spiral
Mark Frenkel, Irina Legchenkova, Edward Bormashenko
Voronoi mosaics inspired by the seed points placed on the Archimedes Spirals are reported. Voronoi entropy was calculated for these patterns. Equidistant and non-equidistant patter…
Spiral Thermal Waves Generated by Self-Propelled Camphor Boats
Alla Vilk, Irina Legchenkova, Mark Frenkel +1
Spiral thermal surface waves arising from self-propulsion of the camphor-driven objects are reported. Spiral thermal waves were registered for the dissolution and evaporation-guide…
Magnetic Field Inspired Contact Angle Hysteresis Drives Floating Polyolefin Rafts
Mark Frenkel, Victor Danchuk, Victor Multanen +1
Displacement of floating polymer (polyolefin) rafts by steady magnetic field is reported. The effect is due to the interplay of gravity deforming the water/vapor interface, contact…
Friction, Free Axes of Rotation and Entropy
Alexander Kazachkov, Victor Multanen, Viktor Danchuk +2
Friction forces acting on rotators may promote their alignment and therefore eliminate degrees of freedom in their movement. The alignment of rotators by friction force was demonst…
Paradoxical Coffee-Stain Effect Driven by the Marangoni Flow Observed on Oil-Infused Surfaces
Gilad Chaniel, Mark Frenkel, Victor Multanen +1
Formation of coffee stain deposits under evaporation of droplets containing aqueous solution of salts placed on silicone-oil impregnated substrates was observed. The formation of r…
