Electrolysis of water is employed to produce surface nanobubbles on highly orientated pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surfaces. Hydrogen (oxygen) nanobubbles are formed when the HOPG surface acts as negative (positive) electrode. Coverage and…
Aqueous foams coarsen with time due to gas diffusion through the liquid. The mean bubble size grows, and small bubbles vanish. However, coarsening is little understood for foams with an intermediate liquid content, particularly in the…

Atomization stretches and folds the liquid-gas interface before fragmenting it into ligaments and droplets, making fractal measures a natural descriptor of the breakup state. We examine this idea in two-dimensional volume-of-fluid direct…
