By taking advantage of laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV), we explore the existence of discrete wave cascades on fluid interfaces excited upon monochromatic excitation. We study viscous liquids of variable capillarity spanning a broad range of…
Static Light Scattering (SLS) and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) are very important techniques to study the characteristics of nano-particles in dispersion. The data of SLS is determined by the optical characteristic and the measured values…
Detailed investigation of static and dynamic laser light scattering has been attempted in this work both theoretically and experimentally based on dilute water dispersions of two different homogenous spherical particles, polystyrene latexes…
The new method proposed in this work not only measures the particle size distribution and the average molar mass accurately using the static light scattering (SLS) technique when the Rayleigh-Gans-Debye approximation is valid for dilute…
Detection and tracking of dynamic objects is a key feature for autonomous behavior in a continuously changing environment. With the increasing popularity and capability of micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) efficient algorithms have to be…
Active matter classifies systems consisting of self-propelled units which convert the energy stored locally or extracted from their environment into directed motion. It has recently attracted considerable attention due to rich new physics…
Single-detector 3D dynamic light scattering (3D-DLS) emerges as a reliable technique to determine the drift velocity of out-of-equilibrium colloidal particles. In particular, our investigation reveals the appearance of oscillations of a…
Slow relaxation and heterogeneous dynamics are characteristic features of glasses. The presence of glassy dynamics in nonequilibrium systems, such as active matter, is of significant interest due to its implications for living systems and…
The unique properties of suspensions containing both active (self-propelling) and passive matter, arising from the nonequilibrium nature of these systems, have been widely studied (e.g., enhanced diffusion, phase separation, and directed…
Advancements in artificial active matter heavily rely on our ability to characterise their motion. Yet, the most widely used tool to analyse the latter is standard wide-field microscopy, which is largely limited to the study of…
The following is a report on an experimental technique allowing to quantify and map the velocity field with a very high resolution and a simple equipment in large 2D devices. A simple Shlieren technique is proposed to reinforce the contrast…
We demonstrate a prototype light scattering instrument combining a frequency domain approach to the intermediate scattering function from Super-Heterodyning Doppler Velocimetry with the versatility of a standard homodyne Dynamic Light…
In the scientific literature little attention has been given to the use of dynamic light scattering (DLS) as a tool for extracting the thermodynamic information contained in the absolute intensity of light scattered by gels. In this article…
We present a field study of snow settling dynamics based on simultaneous measurements of the atmospheric flow field and snow particle trajectories. Specifically, a super-large-scale particle image velocimetry (SLPIV) system using natural…
We describe an optical fiber based interferometer to measure velocity profiles in sheared complex fluids using Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS). After a review of the theoretical problem of DLS under shear, a detailed description of the setup…
Current non-intrusive measurement techniques for characterising the solids flow in gas-solids suspensions are limited by the low temporal or low spatial resolution of the sample volume, or in the case of optical methods, by a short range of…
We study the dynamics of particles in a multi-component 2d Lennard-Jones (LJ) fluid in the limiting case where {\it all the particles are different} (APD). The equilibrium properties of this APD system were studied in our earlier work…
In magnetically-confined plasmas of tokamaks, neutral deuterium/hydrogen (D/H) atoms play a role in energy, momentum, and particle balance, as well as the stabilization of plasma turbulence. One key important fusion performance parameter is…
The formation of the leading-edge vortex (LEV) is a key feature of unsteady flows past aerodynamic surfaces, but is expensive to model in high fidelity computations. Low-order methods based on discrete vortex elements are able to capture…
A growing body of theoretical and experimental evidence strongly supports the existence of a second liquid-liquid critical point (LLCP) in deeply supercooled water leading to the co-existence of two phases: a high-and low-density liquid…
