Vibration-induced detachment of droplets on superhydrophobic surfaces

K Sun, L Shu, F Jia, Z Li, T Wang - Physics of Fluids, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
Vibration is a robust and efficient method for droplet removal from superhydrophobic
surfaces. In the present work, we experimentally investigated the dynamics of droplets on …

Edge-driven collapse of fluid holes

H Zhao, B Zhang, C Lv - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - cambridge.org
We study the stability and collapse of holes at the wall in liquid layers on circular bounded
containers with various wettabilities. Three distinct wetting modes of the hole are observed …

The present study investigates impact of nanodroplets on liquid films with varied film
thicknesses over hydrophilic to hydrophobic surfaces via molecular dynamics simulations. A …

Puncture of a Viscous Liquid Film Due to Droplet Falling

VG Grishaev, IK Bakulin, A Amirfazli, IS Akhatov - Fluids, 2022 - mdpi.com
Droplet impact may rupture a liquid film on a non-wettable surface. The formation of a stable
dry spot has only been studied in the inviscid case. Here, we examine the break-up of …
