Dripping, jetting and tip streaming have been studied up to a certain point separately by both
fluid mechanics and microfluidics communities, the former focusing on fundamental aspects …

Most commercial microfluidic droplet generators rely on the planar flow-focusing
configuration implemented in polymer or glass chips. The planar geometry, however, suffers …

Jet formation and break-up in inkjet printing has been studied and understood mainly for
pure liquids. Questions remain as to the role of surfactants on the inkjet printing process at …

This study aims to elucidate, for the first time, the intricate fundamental physics governing the
dispersion dynamics of a surfactant-laden two-phase liquid–liquid system in the well-known …

As is known, the presence of surfactants can profoundly influence the dynamics of
Newtonian viscous threads. Also, it is known that non-Newtonian viscoelastic threads …

SARS-CoV-2 virions enter the host cells by docking their spike glycoproteins to the
membrane-bound Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2. After intracellular assembly, the newly …

Surfactants at fluid interfaces not only lower and cause gradients in surface tension but can
induce additional surface rheological effects in response to dilatational and shear …

When a droplet coalesces with a flat liquid–air interface, a secondary drop may be left
behind resulting in only a partial coalescence rather than complete coalescence. In this …

Highly stretched liquid drops, or filaments, surrounded by a gas are routinely encountered in
nature and industry. Such filaments can exhibit complex and unexpected dynamics as they …

The rupture of coaxial liquid jets in co-flow focusing is studied experimentally and
numerically, aiming to deepen the understanding of interface coupling and its effect on the …
