The evaporation of sessile droplets on a flat surface involves a complex interplay between phase change, diffusion, advection and surface forces. In an attempt to significantly reduce the complexity of the problem and to make it manageable,…
Droplets on fibers have been extensively studied in the recent years. Although the equilibrium shapes of simple droplets on fibers are well established, the situation becomes more complex for compound fluidic systems. Through experimental…
The evaporation of a droplet induces variety of ordered patterns near the contact line between the droplet and a substrate. This pattern formation involves both the behavior of colloidal suspensions and interactions between a droplet and a…
Rivulets and droplets are naturally appearing shapes when small amounts of liquid are deposited on a partially wettable substrate. Here we study, by means of numerical simulations, the dewetting dynamics of a ring-rivulet on substrates with…
We consider contact line deposition and pattern formation of a pinned evaporating thin drop. We identify and focus on the transport dynamics truncated by the maximal concentration, proposed by Dupont, as the single deposition mechanism. The…
Evaporating colloidal droplets have long been used as model systems to understand capillarity, interfacial transport, and particle assembly, most prominently through the coffee ring effect. In classical descriptions, suspended particles are…
Watercolor or aquarelle is one of the oldest painting methods in which pigments suspended in an aqueous liquid are deposited over a substrate, typically an absorbing material such as paper. The physical processes which lead to pattern…
Droplet deposition onto a hydrophobic surface is studied experimentally and numerically. A wide range of droplet sizes can result from the same syringe, depending strongly on the needle retraction speed. Three regimes are identified…
A thin polymeric film in contact with a fluid body may leach low-molecular-weight compounds into the fluid. If this fluid is a small droplet, the compound concentration within the liquid increases due to ongoing leaching in combination with…

The dynamics of evaporation of wetting droplets has been investigated experimentally in an extended range of drop sizes, in order to provide trends relevant for a theoretical analysis. A model is proposed, which generalises Tanner's law,…
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 supraparticles, and virus and bacteria survival in aerosols or drops on…
We study the size and shape of the final deposit obtained when a drop with colloidal particles has dried on a super-hydrophobic surface made of micro-posts. As expected, most of the particles lie inside a circular area, which radius roughly…
The shape of deposits obtained from drying drops containing colloidal particles matters for technologies such as inkjet printing, microelectronics and bioassay manufacturing. In this work, the formation of deposits during the drying of…
Depending on the contact line motion, colloid-rich drolets evaporation can leave a ring-like or a spot-like residue. Herein, we determine this outcome by controlling the contact line motion using coplanar direct current…
The work is devoted to particles dynamics simulation in a colloidal drop, when it dries on a substrate and the triple-phase boundary is fixed. Experimental observations [Deegan R. D. et. al., 2000] show a ring deposition on a solid…
As was shown in an earlier paper [1], solids dispersed in a drying drop migrate to the (pinned) contact line. This migration is caused by outward flows driven by the loss of the solvent due to evaporation and by geometrical constraint that…
Effects of substrate temperature, substrate wettability and particles concentration are experimentally investigated for evaporation of a sessile water droplet containing colloidal particles. Time-varying droplet shapes and temperature of…
