Capillarity plays a crucial role in many natural and engineered systems, ranging from
nutrient delivery in plants to functional textiles for wear comfort or thermal heat pipes for heat …

When deformed beyond their elastic limits, crystalline solids flow plastically via particle
rearrangements localized around structural defects. Disordered solids also flow, but without …

When particles are deposited at a fluid interface they tend to aggregate by capillary
attraction to minimize the overall potential energy of the system. In this work, we embed …

Particle-laden interfaces are critical to the flotation separation of hydrophobic particles using
air bubbles. After contacting the particle suspension, the bubble surface is loaded with many …

Manipulating micro/nanoparticles on deformed liquid interfaces induced by radiation
pressure presents an active, non‐invasive, and contactless method. However, a significant …

Abstract Physical adhesion between Carbon Fibres (CFs) and polymer matrices as well as
the formation of voids at the interface between these two materials are mostly controlled by …

By mixing glass beads with a curable polymer we create a well-defined cohesive granular
medium, held together by solidified, and hence elastic, capillary bridges. This material has a …

Two bodies resting at a fluid interface may interact laterally due to the surface deformations
they induce. Here we use an applied magnetic force to perform direct measurements of the …

Liquid-filled corners and capillary bridges can establish networks connecting seemingly
isolated clusters during drainage in porous media. Coupled with drainage through the bulk …

Structural defects within amorphous packings of symmetric particles can be characterized
using a machine learning approach that incorporates structure functions of radial distances …
