چکیده
In this paper, we emphasize our long series of experiments proving that the physical processes along fluid interfaces can be exploited for creating unusual fluidic objects. We report for the first time a couple of new fluidic objects so-called “liquid onions” and “mayonnaise” droplets. The study starts from the observation of antibubbles, exhibiting unstable liquid–air–liquid interfaces. We show that the lifetime vailable online 17 January 2009

Bouncing of polymeric droplets on liquid interfaces.
The effect of polymers on the bouncing behavior of droplets in a highly viscous, vertically shaken silicone oil bath was investigated in this study. Droplets of a sample liquid were carefully placed on a vibrating bath that was maintained well below the threshold of Faraday waves. The bouncing threshold of the plate acceleration depended on the acceleration frequency. For pure water droplets an...
متن کاملSuperhydrophobic-like tunable droplet bouncing on slippery liquid interfaces
Droplet impacting on solid or liquid interfaces is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature. Although complete rebound of droplets is widely observed on superhydrophobic surfaces, the bouncing of droplets on liquid is usually vulnerable due to easy collapse of entrapped air pocket underneath the impinging droplet. Here, we report a superhydrophobic-like bouncing regime on thin liquid film, characteriz...
متن کاملDroplet collisions after liquid jet breakup in microgravity conditions
The droplet dynamics and collisions after a liquid jet breakup have been experimentally studied in low gravity conditions. An experimental setup was designed in order to be used at the I.N.T.A. Drop Tower, which allows for 2.1 seconds of microgravity. The dynamics of distilled water jets injected into a rectangular tank was recorded by means of a high-speed video camera. Observations of the dro...
متن کاملLiquid jet breakup and subsequent droplet dynamics under normal gravity and in microgravity conditions
We present an experimental study on the characteristics of liquid jets in different configurations. We consider jets injected perpendicular to gravity, jets injected parallel to gravity, and jets injected in a microgravity environment. We study the role played by gravity in the jet breakup length and in the dynamics of the droplets generated after breakup. We analyze droplets obtained in the dr...
متن کاملResonant and antiresonant bouncing droplets.
When placed onto a vibrating liquid bath, a droplet may adopt a permanent bouncing behavior, depending on both the forcing frequency and the forcing amplitude. The relationship between the droplet deformations and the bouncing mechanism is studied experimentally and theoretically through an asymmetric and dissipative bouncing spring model. Antiresonance phenomena are evidenced. Experiments and ...
