The tendency of a stationary droplet, sitting on the surface of a large body of liquid, to eject a smaller droplet when it eventually coalesces with the body has long been known but its details ...

Understanding the dynamics and impacts of raindrops on plant leaves has implications that extend beyond botany.

Science often surprises us with its ability to connect seemingly unrelated phenomena. Have you ever stopped to marvel at how ...

The fragmentation mechanism of liquid sheets from spray nozzles has recently been described in detail under quiescent conditions. With high wind speeds, measurements of the droplet size distribution ...

Numerous experimental and modelling challenges must be addressed to explore the evaporative drying of aerosol droplets. The first challenge is one of measurement: how can such dynamic processes be ...

Shuailong Zhang and Prof. Hang Li from the Beijing Institute of Technology have recently published a review article titled "Droplet-Based Microfluidics with Mass Spectrometry for Microproteomics ...

New Cornell research reveals how leaves endure raindrop impacts, which hit with the force of a bowling ball relative to their ...

These vortices, driven by a balance of mutual repulsion and confinement within the droplet, self-organized into triangular clusters. The theoretical underpinning of this phenomenon lies in a ...
