Experimental and modelling investigation of the deformation, drag and break-up of drizzle droplets subjected to strong aerodynamics forces in relation to SLD aircraft icing [PDF]
, 2005 The distortion, drag and break-up of drizzle droplets subjected to strong aerodynamic forces was investigated to understand the pre-impact behaviour of droplets in aircraft icing from supercooled freezing drizzle.

On the lifetimes of evaporating droplets [PDF]
, 2014 The complete description of the lifetime of a droplet on a solid substrate evaporating in a 'stick–slide' mode is obtained. The unexpectedly subtle relationship between the lifetime of such a droplet and the lifetimes of initially identical droplets ...
