In the field of acoustic suspension or levitation of droplets against gravity, the application of Gorkov's acoustic radiation force for small particles (within the Rayleigh limit) or its extensions to larger ones (beyond the Rayleigh limit)…

Using a Fourier approach we offer a general solution to calculations of slip velocity within the circuit description of the electro-hydrodynamics in a binary electrolyte confined by a plane surface with a modulated surface potential. We…

We study droplet dynamics and breakup in generic time-dependent flows via a multicomponent Lattice Boltzmann algorithm, with emphasis on flow start up conditions. We first study droplet breakup in a confined oscillatory shear flow via two…

We study the low-frequency dielectric response of highly charged spheres arranged in a cubic lattice and immersed in an electrolyte solution. We focus on the influence of the out-of-phase current in the regime where the ionic charge is…

We investigate electrostatic stability of charged droplets, modeled as permeable, charged spheres, and their encapsidation in thin, arbitrarily charged nano-shells, immersed in a neutralizing asymmetric electrolyte background. The latter…

We delineate and examine the distinct breakup modes of evaporating water-in-oil emulsion droplets under acoustic levitation. The emulsion droplets consist of decane/dodecane/tetradecane as oil, while the water concentration is varied from…

Due to the potential application of regulating droplet shape by external fields in microfluidic technology and micro devices, it becomes increasingly important to understand the shape formation of a droplet in the presence of an electric…

Studies on finite-size plasma have attracted a lot of attention lately. They can form by ionizing liquid droplets by lasers. The dynamical behavior of such plasma droplets is, therefore, a topic of significant interest. In particular,…

We have investigated how the Rayleigh-Plateau instability of a filament made of a 41K-87Rb self-bound mixture may lead to an array of identical quantum droplets, with typical breaking times which are shorter than the lifetime of the…

Consider the dynamics of a gas bubble in an inviscid, compressible liquid with surface tension. Kinematic and dynamic boundary conditions couple the bubble surface deformation dynamics with the dynamics of waves in the fluid. This system…

Breakup of water jets under gravity is a common-place phenomenon. The role of surface tension in the instability of water jets was recognized by Rayleigh and the theory propounded goes by the name of Plateau-Rayleigh theory. The necks and…

We report on the dynamics of a pair of sessile droplets that are connected by a microchannel, yet open to the atmosphere and hence free to evaporate. Our results reveal that fluid exchange between droplets occurs via a pumping flow driven…

Studies of sessile droplets and fluid bridges of a ferroelectric nematic liquid crystal in externally applied electric fields are presented. It is found that above a threshold, the interface of the fluid with air undergoes a fingering…

The process of drop formation from a nozzle can be seen in many natural systems and engineering applications. Here, we investigate the formation of a liquid droplet from a wettable nozzle. The behavior of a drop is complicated due to an…

We study the influence of anisotropy, treated as a dimensional crossover between 1D and 3D system, on the topological instability induced by a (self-consistent) uniaxial periodic potential. The mechanism on which the instability is based…

The behavior of a magnetic fluid drop lying on a solid horizontal surface and surrounded by a nonmagnetic liquid under the action of a uniform magnetic field which is rotating in a vertical plane with low frequency (of the order of 1 Hz)…

We study the free energy landscapes of a pair of submicron spherical particles floating at the surface of a sessile droplet. The particles are subjected to radial external forces resulting in a deformation of the droplet shape relative to…

The unsteady electrorotation of a drop of a viscous weakly conducting polarizable liquid suspended in another viscous weakly conducting polarizable liquid immiscible with the former in an applied constant uniform electric field is…

Fluid flow passing a post-buckled sheet placed between two close confining walls induces periodic snap-through oscillations and contacts that can be employed for triboelectric energy harvesting. The responses of a two-dimensional sheet to a…

The Brownian dynamics of an optically trapped water droplet are investigated across the transition from over to under-damped oscillations. The spectrum of position fluctuations evolves from a Lorentzian shape typical of over-damped systems…
