Ice accumulation hinders the performance of, and poses safety threats for infrastructure both on the ground and in the air. Previously, rationally designed superhydrophobic surfaces have demonstrated some potential as a passive means to…
Using Brownian Dynamics, we study the dynamical behavior of a polymer grafted onto an adhesive surface close to the mechanically induced adsorption-stretching transition. Even though the transition is first order, (in the infinite chain…
Shocks in granular media, such as vertically oscillated beds, have been shown to develop instabilities. Similar jet formation has been observed in explosively dispersed granular media. Our previous work addressed this instability by…
We consider the effective hydrophobicity of a periodically grooved surface immersed in liquid, with trapped shear-free bubbles protruding between the no-slip ridges at a $\pi/2$ contact angle. Specifically, we carry out a…
Jetting of collapsing bubbles is a key aspect in cavitation-driven fluid-solid interactions as it shapes the bubble dynamics and additionally due to its direct interaction with the wall. We study experimentally and numerically the near-wall…
The importance of accurately capturing two-way coupled interactions between particles with complex shapes and rarefied gas flows is rapidly rising in different practical applications such as aerospace industry and semiconductor…
Liquid drops can be kept from touching a plane solid surface by a gas stream entering from underneath, as it is observed for water drops on a heated plate, kept aloft by a stream of water vapor. We investigate the limit of small flow rates,…
We study gravitational-wave production from bubble dynamics (bubble collisions and sound waves) during a cosmic first-order phase transition with an analytic approach. We first propose modeling the system with the thin-wall approximation…
A curved two dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit interactions due to the radial confinement asymmetry is considered. At certain relation between the spin-orbit coupling strength and curvature radius the tangential component of the…
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…
Nonlinear dynamics of a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate, subject to the action of a resonant external field, is studied. This field produces a spatio-temporal modulation of the trapping potential with the frequency close to the transition…
We numerically investigate bouncing and non-bouncing of droplets during isothermal impact on superhydrophobic surfaces. An in-house, experimentally-validated, finite-element method based computational model is employed to simulate the…
This study examines the effects of an external gravitational field on highly rarefied gases in the transitional-flow regime near the free-molecular-flow regime. In our theoretical study, we rederive the classical kinetic theory for an ideal…
Optical levitation of a liquid droplet in gas phase was investigated under timedependent change of the gravitational acceleration with specific flight pattern of an airplane. Through multiple trials under linear increase of effective…
Symmetry-breaking instability of a laterally uniform granular cluster (strip state) in a prototypical driven granular gas is investigated. The system consists of smooth hard disks in a two-dimensional box, colliding inelastically with each…
Two mechanisms are considered responsible for the turbulence modification due to suspended particles in a turbulent gas-particle suspension. Turbulence augmentation is due to the enhancement of fluctuations by wakes behind particles,…
The pinch-off of an air bubble from an underwater nozzle ends in a singularity with a remarkable sensitivity to a variety of perturbations. I report on experiments that break both the axial (i.e., vertical) and azimuthal symmetry of the…
The behaviour of a viscous drop squeezed between two horizontal planes is treated by both theory and experiment. When the squeezing force F is constant and surface tension is neglected, the theory predicts ultimate growth of the radius a~…
This paper considers the interaction between two droplets placed on a substrate in immediate vicinity. We show here that when the two droplets are of different fluids and especially when one of the droplet is highly volatile, a wealth of…
When making contact with an undercooled target, a drop freezes. The colder the target is, the more rapid the freezing is supposed to be. In this research, we explore the impact of droplets on cold granular material. As the undercooling…
