The field of droplet electrohydrodynamics (EHD) emerged with a seminal work of GI Taylor in 1966, who presented the so-called leaky dielectric model (LDM) to predict the droplet …

The deformation of a viscous liquid droplet suspended in another liquid and subject to an applied electric field is a classic multiphase flow problem best described by the Melcher …
We investigate the motion of a sedimenting drop in the presence of an electric field in an arbitrary direction, otherwise uniform, in the limit of small interface deformation and low …

Weakly conducting dielectric liquid drops suspended in another dielectric liquid and subject to an applied uniform electric field exhibit a wide range of dynamical behaviours contingent …
The mechanism of surface charge convection (SCC) reveals inherently nonlinear coupling between the electrostatic problem and the hydrodynamic flow in the Melcher–Taylor …

In this article, the transient electric field driven orientation and deformation of the droplet is investigated theoretically, with the innovation that the main axis of the droplet is not aligned …
Dispersion of droplets in an emulsion is commonly seen in several chemical, pharmaceutical and petroleum industries. Electric field has been shown to affect the stability …
