A drop hitting a solid surface can deposit, bounce, or splash. Splashing arises from the
breakup of a fine liquid sheet that is ejected radially along the substrate. Bouncing and …

Dynamic variables of drop impact such as force, drag, pressure, and stress distributions are
key to understanding a wide range of natural and industrial processes. While the study of …

Research on liquid drop impact, especially during the past two decades, has been motivated
by a need for better predictive capability in many industries. This paper will review published …

Droplet impact dynamics is an interfacial phenomenon that is shown everywhere in nature
and is the underlying of numerous technological applications including bio-printing, tissue …

In this paper, we present a simple and accurate lattice Boltzmann (LB) model for immiscible
two-phase flows, which is able to deal with large density contrasts. This model utilizes two …

Technologies including (3D-)(bio-) printing, diesel engines, laser-induced forward transfer,
and spray cleaning require optimization and therefore understanding of micrometer-sized …

Aerosols are investigated because of their significant impact on the environment and human
health. To date, windblown dust and sea salt from sea spray through bursting bubbles have …

We study drop impact on a deep pool of the same fluid, with an emphasis on the air layer
trapped under the droplets from its formation to its rupture. The penetration velocity of the air …

When a fast-moving drop impacts onto a smooth substrate, splashing will be produced at the
edge of the expanding liquid sheet. This ubiquitous phenomenon lacks a fundamental …
