Mouillage et démouillage inertiel: triplons, flaques vibrées, ondes de chocs

Author(s) : NOBLIN, Xavier
Description : Nous avons étudié la statique et la dynamique d'une ligne triple flottante. Nous avons mesuré la force exercée par la ligne lorsqu'on la déforme (tensiomètre de ligne) et la relation de dispersion des ondes se propageant le long de la ligne ("Triplons"). Nous avons ensuite étudié l'effet de vibratio...

Electrowetting control of bouncing jets

Description : As recently studied, a sub-millimetric liquid jet can bounce on sufficiently hydrophobic surfaces [F.Celestini et al., Soft Matter 6(23), 5872-5876 (2010); A. Kibar et al., Exp. Fluids 49(5), 1135-1145 (2010)]. As the hydrophobicity is reduced, the reflection angle (\theta_r) increases and the jet r...

Surface Tension Propulsion of Fungal Spores

Description : Most basidiomycete fungi actively eject their spores. The process begins with the condensation of a water droplet at the base of the spore. The fusion of the droplet onto the spore creates a momentum that propels the spore forward. The use of surface tension for spore ejection offers a new paradigm ...

Ratchet-like motion of a shaken drop

Description : We study the motion of a drop lying on a plate simultaneously submitted to horizontal and vertical harmonic vibrations. The two driving vibrations are adjusted to the same frequency, and according to their relative amplitude and phase difference ∆Φ, the drop experiences a controlled directed motion ...

Photoelastic study of acoustic wave propagation in grain packings

Description : By means of photoelasticity, we success in visualizing in real time the propagation of acoustic waves in a granular packing of cylinders. As previously mentioned by Nesterenko for the case of spherical grains, the nonlinearity of the contact law between grains induces a dependence of the wave veloci...

Propagation of acoustic waves in a one-dimensional array of noncohesive cylinders

Description : By means of a photoelastic method, we access the visualization of acoustic waves propagating in a one dimensional array of noncohesive cylinders. As pointed by Nesterenko in the case of spherical grains (V.F. Nesterenko, J. Appl. Mech. Tech. Phys. 24, p. 567 (1983)), the nonlinearity of the contact ...

Surface tension propulsion of fungal spores by use of microdroplets

Description : Many edible mushrooms eject their spores (about 10 microns in size) at high speed (about 1 m/s) using surface tension forces in a few microseconds. Basically the coalescence of a droplet with the spore generates the necessary momentum to eject the spore. We have detailed this mechanism in \cite{no...

Remote control of moving sessile droplets

Description : We recently put in evidence (\cite{noblin2}) that combined vertical and horizontal vibrations can induced a controlled motion of a sessile supported drop. In this video we generalize this finding and demonstrate that a remote 2d controlled motion is possible. This video was submitted as part of th...

Dynamics of a ball bouncing on a vibrated elastic membrane

Description : We investigate the dynamics of a ball bouncing on a vibrated elastic membrane. Beyond the classical solid/solid case, we study the effect of introducing new degrees of freedom by allowing substrate oscillations. The forcing frequency of the vibration strongly influences the different thresholds betw...
