Spreading dynamics of drop impacts (2012, methodology): “Finally, let us emphasize that the scaling for τp in Re1/5 is the same as the law obtained for the maximum spreading expansion in the viscous regime (Clanet et al. 2004).”
Numerical simulations of self-propelled jumping upon drop coalescence on non-wetting surfaces (2014, background): “…coefficient, which is the rebound velocity over the impacting velocity, the impact of individual drops on non-wetting surfaces is elastic (i.e. no appreciable loss in energy) for low-Weber-number cases (Richard & Quéré 2000) and inelastic for high-Weber-number cases (Clanet et al. 2004).”
Characterization of super liquid-repellent surfaces (2014, background): “In this process the kinetic energy is converted to interfacial energy of the deformed drop [105,112,113].”
Bio-inspired strategies for anti-icing. (2014, background): “studied the rebound behavior of water droplets vertically impacting on an SHS by varying the impacting velocity and droplet radius.(56,57) As de-”
