The Bouncing Jet: A Newtonian Liquid Rebounding off a Free Surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We find that a liquid jet can bounce off a bath of the same liquid if the bath is moving horizontally with respect to the jet. Previous observations of jets rebounding off a bath (e.g.

Incorporation of liquid fillers into silicone foams to enhance the electro-mechanical properties

open access: yesInternational Journal of Smart and Nano Materials, 2020
Silicone foams with and without liquid fillers (silicone oils of various types and glycerol, respectively) are synthesized and analyzed to be used as dielectric layers in capacitive sensors. A simple fabrication technique involving only four components i.

Particles at oil–air surfaces : powdered oil, liquid oil marbles, and oil foam [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The type of material stabilized by four kinds of fluorinated particles (sericite and bentonite platelet clays and spherical zinc oxide) in air–oil mixtures has been investigated. It depends on the particle wettability and the degree of shear.

Dynamics of drop impact on solid surfaces: evolution of impact force and self-similar spreading

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the dynamics of drop impacts on dry solid surfaces. By synchronising high-speed photography with fast force sensing, we simultaneously measure the temporal evolution of the shape and impact force of impacting drops over a wide range of ...
