Bouncing-to-wetting transition for impact of water droplets on soft solids
Surjyasish Mitra, Quoc Vo, Tuan Tran
Soft surfaces impacted by liquid droplets trap more air underneath than their rigid counterpart. The extended lifetime of the air film not only facilitates bouncing behaviours of t…
Droplet ejection by electrowetting actuation
Quoc Vo, Tuan Tran
Fast contact-line motion of a droplet spreading on a solid substrate under the electrowetting effect generates strong capillary waves on the droplet's surface. The capillary waves…
Vibration-induced actuation of droplets on microstructured surfaces
Dinh-Tuan Phan, Hao Yu, Tuan Tran
When a liquid droplet impacts a vibrated micro-structured surface with asymmetric topology, the liquids perform a horizontal motion during its bouncing. The moving effect is observ…
Leidenfrost droplets trampoline
Dongdong Liu, Tuan Tran
A liquid droplet hovering on a hot surface is commonly referred to as a Leidenfrost droplet. In this study, we discover that a Leidenfrost droplet involuntarily performs a series o…
Universality of oscillating boiling in Leidenfrost transition
Mohammad Khavari, Tuan Tran
The Leidenfrost transition leads a boiling system to the boiling crisis, a state in which the liquid loses contact with the heated surface due to excessive vapor generation. Here,…
