We present results on the leveling of polymer microdroplets on thin films prepared from the same material. In particular, we explore the crossover from a droplet spreading on an infinitesimally thin film (Tanner's law regime) to that of a…

The effect of temperature on friction and slip at the liquid-solid interface has attracted attention over the last twenty years, both numerically and experimentally. However, the role of temperature on slip close to the glass transition has…

Weakly conducting dielectric liquid drops suspended in another dielectric liquid and subject to an applied uniform electric field exhibit a wide range of dynamical behaviors contingent on field strength and material properties. These…

Recent experiments have shown that liquid Leidenfrost drops levitated by their vapor above a flat hot surface can exhibit symmetry-breaking spontaneous dynamics (A. Bouillant et al., Nature Physics, 14 1188-1192, 2018). Motivated by these…

An isolated Leidenfrost droplet levitating over its own vapor above a superheated flat substrate is considered theoretically, the superheating for water being up to several hundred degrees above the boiling temperature. The focus is on the…

Liquid drops are everywhere around us and important in numerous technological applications. Here, we demonstrate a quasi-two-dimensional (Q2D) analogy to the regular, often close to axisymmetric, three-dimensional (3D) drops. The Q2D drops…

We present molecular dynamics computer simulations of filaments of model non-Newtonian liquid stretched in a uniaxial deformation to the point of breaking. The liquid consists of Lennard-Jones monomers bound into chains of 100 monomers by…

We show that a volatile liquid drop placed at the surface of a non-volatile liquid pool warmer than the boiling point of the drop can experience a Leidenfrost effect even for vanishingly small superheats. Such an observation points to the…

Direct numerical simulations are used to investigate the individual dynamics of large spherical particles suspended in a developed homogeneous turbulent flow. A definition of the direction of the particle motion relative to the surrounding…

The aim of this study is to derive accurate models for quantities characterizing the dynamics of droplets of non-vanishing viscosity in capillaries. In particular, we propose models for the uniform-film thickness separating the droplet from…

A sessile liquid drop can deform the substrate on which it rests if the solid is sufficiently "soft". In this paper we compute the detailed spatial structure of the capillary forces exerted by the drop on the solid substrate using a model…

To investigate the link between discrete, small-scale and continuous, large scale mechanical properties of a foam, we observe its two-dimensional flow in a channel, around an elliptical obstacle. We measure the drag, lift and torque acting…

We study numerically the deformation of sessile dielectric drops immersed in a second fluid when submitted to the optical radiation pressure of a continuous Gaussian laser wave. Both drop stretching and drop squeezing are investigated at…

Drops placed on a surface with a temperature above the Leidenfrost point float atop an evaporative vapor layer. In this fluid dynamics video, it is shown that for roughened surfaces the Leidenfrost point depends on the drop size, which runs…

We present a numerical simulation study of a simple monatomic Lennard-Jones liquid under shear flow, as a function of both temperature and shear rate. By investigating different observables we find that i) It exists a line in the…

In the Leidenfrost effect, liquid drops deposited on a hot surface levitate on a thin vapor cushion fed by evaporation of the liquid. This vapor layer forms a concave depression in the drop interface. Using laser-light interference coupled…

The behavior of an excess electron in a one, two and three dimensional classical liquid has been studied with the aid of Chandler, Singh and Richardson (CSR) theory [J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 81} 1975 (1984)] . The size or dispersion of the…

The deformation of a viscous liquid droplet suspended in another liquid and subject to an applied electric field is a classic multiphase flow problem best described by the Melcher-Taylor leaky dielectric model. The main assumption of the…

The spreading of a cap-shaped spherical droplet of non-Newtonian power-law liquids on a flat and a spherical rough and textured substrate is theoretically studied in the capillary-controlled spreading regime. A droplet whose scale is much…

A fluid droplet in general deforms, if subject to active driving, such as a finite slip velocity or active tractions on its interface. We show that these deformations and their dynamics can be computed analytically in a perturbation theory…
