Thermocapillary flow‐induced core release from double‐emulsion droplets in microchannels
Droplet, 2023 The use of double emulsions (DEs), which represent colloidal structures composed of droplets nested within droplets, can provide for unparallel droplet manipulation in droplet‐based microfluidic technology due to their unique core–shell structures.

Microdroplet impact at very high velocity [PDF]
, 2012 Water microdroplet impact at velocities up to 100 m/s for droplet diameters from 12 to 100 um is studied. This parameter range covers the transition from capillary-limited to viscosity-limited spreading of the impacting droplet.

Numerical methods and calculations for droplet flow, heating and ignition [PDF]
, 1982 A numerical method was devised and employed to solve a variety of problems related to liquid droplet combustion. The basic transport equations of mass, momentum and energy were formulated in terms of generalized nonorthogonal coordinates, which allows ...

Reproducible reformation of a bilayer lipid membrane using microair bubbles
Droplet, 2023 Planar bilayer lipid membranes (BLMs) are widely used as models for cell membranes in various applications, including drug discovery and biosensors. However, the nanometer‐thick bilayer structure, assembled through hydrophobic interactions of amphiphilic

Programmable droplet manipulation enabled by charged‐surface pattern reconfiguration
Droplet, 2023 Programmable droplet manipulation based on external stimulation is in high demand in various modern technologies. Despite notable progress, current manipulation strategies still suffer from a common drawback such as single control means of modulating the
