Physics of drying complex fluid drop: Flow field, pattern formation, and desiccation cracks
Drying complex fluids is a common phenomenon where a liquid phase transforms into a
dense or porous solid. This transformation involves several physical processes, such as the …

Crack densification in drying colloidal suspensions
As sessile drops of aqueous colloidal suspensions dry, a close-packed particle deposit
forms that grows from the edge of the drop toward the center. To compensate for evaporation …

The study of drying and pattern formation of whole human blood drops and the effect of thalassaemia and neonatal jaundice on the patterns
L Bahmani, M Neysari, M Maleki - Colloids and Surfaces A …, 2017 - Elsevier
In this paper, we report a study on the drying process of whole human blood drops on glass
substrates. It was shown previously (Brutin et al., 2011) that some diseases can change the …

Droplet drying patterns on solid substrates: from hydrophilic to superhydrophobic contact to levitating drops
This review is devoted to the simple process of drying a multicomponent droplet of a
complex fluid which may contain salt or other inclusions. These processes provide a …

Effect of Colloidal Surface Charge on Desiccation Cracks
We report the effect of polarity and surface charge density on the nucleation and growth
kinetics of desiccation cracks in deposits of colloids formed by drying. We show that the …

Capillarity in soft porous solids
Soft porous solids can change their shapes by absorbing liquids via capillarity. Such poro-
elasto-capillary interactions can be seen in the wrinkling of paper, swelling of cellulose …

Evaporation of drops containing silica nanoparticles of varying hydrophobicities: Exploiting particle–particle interactions for additive-free tunable deposit morphology
We describe the systematic and quantitative investigation of a large number of patterns that
emerge after the evaporation of aqueous drops containing fumed silica nanoparticles (NPs) …

Universal scaling of polygonal desiccation crack patterns
Polygonal desiccation crack patterns are commonly observed in natural systems. Despite
their quotidian nature, it is unclear whether similar crack patterns which span orders of …
