A spontaneous breakup of a liquid jet results in the formation of a chain of droplets, which is a daily observed phenomenon, such as in the raining process and under an open water-faucet. We here report inkjet printing experiments for the…
We present a model for the hydrodynamics of a relativistic jet interacting with the circum-stellar medium (CSM). The shocked CSM and the jet material are assumed to be in an infinitely thin surface, so the original 2D problem is effectively…
We develop a parameter-free model for the fragmentation of drops colliding off-center. The prediction is excellent over a wide range of liquid properties. The so-called stretching separation is attributed to the extension of the merged drop…
Deformation of liquid droplets by impingement induces Worthington jet in certain range of the impact velocity. Although the growth of the jet as well as its tip velocity is predicted from similar cases to the droplet impact, the mechanism…
From everyday experience, we all know that a solid edge can deflect a liquid flowing over it significantly, up to the point where the liquid completely sticks to the solid. Although important in pouring, printing and extrusion processes,…
Collisions between a stream of drops and a continuous jet of a different liquid are experimentally investigated. In contrast to previous studies, our work focuses on the effects of liquid miscibility and wettability on the collision…
The global structure of the atmosphere and the oceans is a continuous source of intriguing challenges in geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD). Among these, jets are determinant in the air and water circulation around the Earth. In the last…
We study the deformation and dewetting of liquid films under impinging gas jets using experimental, analytical and numerical techniques. We first derive a reduced-order model (a thin-film equation) based on the long-wave assumption and on…
A small, spherical bubble of high internal pressure is inserted into water at constant ambient pressure as a model of a laser-induced bubble. Its subsequent dynamics near a flat solid boundary is studied in dependence on the distance of the…
We explore the complex dynamics of a non-coalescing drop of moderate size inside a circular hydraulic jump of the same liquid formed on a horizontal disk. In this situation the drop is moving along the jump and one observes two different…
We study singular jets from the collapse of drop-impact craters, when the drop and pool are of different immiscible liquids. These jets emerge from a dimple at the bottom of the rebounding crater, when no bubble is pinched off. The…
We propose a two-phase-fluid model for a full-cone turbulent round jet that describes its dynamics in a simple but comprehensive manner with only the apex angle of the cone being a disposable parameter. The basic assumptions are that (i)…
We propose a new description of the jet quenching phenomenon observed in nuclear collisions at high energies in which coherent parton branching plays a central role. This picture is based on the appearance of a dynamically generated scale,…
In this work, we develop a novel model describing the equilibrium shape of sessile droplets on a wetted horizontal surface in a gravitational field. The model takes into account the intermolecular Lenard-Jones forces between solid and the…
Dripping dynamics has been well studied over the past century and forms a classic example of chaotic system in physics. With an increase in the inlet flow rate, periodic droplet formation from a faucet becomes chaotic in terms of the…
We find that a liquid jet can bounce off a bath of the same liquid if the bath is moving horizontally with respect to the jet. Previous observations of jets rebounding off a bath (e.g. Kaye effect) have been reported only for non-Newtonian…
We study drop impacts on immiscible viscous liquid pool and investigate the formation of droplet surface craters using experimental and theoretical analysis. We attribute the formation of air craters to the rapid deceleration of the droplet…
In the classical one-dimensional solution of fluid dynamics equations all unknown functions depend only on time t and Cartesian coordinate x. Although fluid spreads in all directions (velocity vector has three components) the whole picture…
Fast liquid jets, called micro-jets, are produced within cavitation bubbles experiencing an aspherical collapse. Here we review micro-jets of different origins, scales and appearances, and propose a unified framework to describe their…
Breath figures are the complex patterns that form when water vapor condenses into liquid droplets on a surface. The primary question concerning breath figures is how the condensing vapor is allocated between the growth of existing droplets…
