We consider a classical (capillary) model for a one-phase liquid in equilibrium. The liquid (e.g. water) is subject to a volume constraint, it does not mix with the surrounding vapour (e.g. air), it may come into contact with solid supports…
Spilling tea or coffee leads to a tell-tale circular stain after the droplet dries, known as the "coffee ring effect". The evaporation of suspension droplets is a complex physical process, and predicting and controlling the particle deposit…
A recent experiment showed that cylindrical segments of water filling a hydrophilic stripe on an otherwise hydrophobic surface display a capillary instability when their volume is increased beyond the critical volume at which their apparent…
Droplet mobility under shear flows is important in a wide range of engineering applications, e.g., fog collection, and self-cleaning surfaces. For structured surfaces to achieve superhydrophobicity, the removal of stains adhered within the…
We experimentally investigate the evaporation dynamics of sessile droplets of a fixed volume consisting of different compositions of ethanol-water binary mixture at different substrate temperatures (T_s). At T_s=25oC, we observe…
The angular momentum of rotating superfluid droplets originates from quantized vortices and capillary waves, the interplay between which remains to be uncovered. Here, the rotation of isolated sub-micrometer superfluid 4He droplets is…
We present qualitative observations on the internal flow characteristics of fluidic oscillator geometries commonly referred to as sweeping jets in active flow control applications. This is part of the fluid dynamics videos.
The ability to control the morphology of the nanotube deposit formed during the evaporation of a sessile droplet on a substrate is of theoretical and practical interest. Such deposits are required for various applications including…
In this work, we concern ourselves with the evolution of a droplet of an ideal fluid in two dimensions, which has nontrivial bulk vorticity and is only subject to the effects of surface tension. We construct initial data with initial domain…
Evaporative drying of colloidal droplets with different concentrations (Ci) on liquid infused slippery substrate (LISS) surfaces fabricated over biomimetically patterned sticky hydrophobic surfaces is reported here. These slippery surfaces…
We experimentally investigate the evaporation dynamics of sessile water droplets on a micro-nano textured superhydrophobic aluminum substrate at various temperatures using shadowgraphy imaging. By comparing the evaporation behavior of two…
We present the results of a combined experimental and theoretical study of the spreading of viscous droplets over rigid substrates. First, we experimentally investigate the wetting of a roughened glass surface by a viscous droplet of…
In several capillary dynamics experiments, the liquid domain is confined by pinning the three-phase contact line along a sharp edge or a discontinuity on the substrate. Simulating the dynamics of pinned droplets can offer valuable insights…
For a drop on an incline with small tilt angle or small Bond number, when the contact line is a circle, we show that the retentive force factor is exactly pi/2 at first order in the tilt angle or the Bond number. The retentive force factor…
A particle placed in soft matter distorts its host and creates an energy landscape. This can occur, for example, for particles in liquid crystals, for particles on lipid bilayers or for particles trapped at fluid interfaces. Such energies…
Pendant drops spontaneously appear on the underside of wet surfaces through the Rayleigh-Taylor instability. These droplets have no contact line, they are connected to a thin liquid film with which they exchange liquid and are thus mobile:…
In this study, we present experimental and theoretical analyses of double emulsion drop evaporation. After the apparent completion of evaporation of the inner phase of a double emulsion drop, surprisingly, a resurfacing of a daughter…
The article reports droplet evaporation kinetics on inclined substrates. Comprehensive experimental and theoretical analyses of the droplet evaporation behaviour for different substrate declination, wettability and temperatures have been…
The encapsulation of active particles, such as bacteria or active colloids, inside a droplet gives rise to nontrivial shape dynamics and droplet motility. To understand this behavior, we derive an asymptotic solution for the fluid flow…
We experimentally investigate the evaporation dynamics of an array of sessile droplets arranged in different configurations. Utilizing a customized goniometer, we capture side and top view profiles to monitor the evolution of height,…
