Sharp interface methods for simulation and analysis of free surface flows with singularities: Breakup and coalescence
A common feature of many free surface flows—drop/bubble breakup or coalescence and
film/sheet rupture—is the occurrence of hydrodynamic singularities. Accurately computing …

The retraction of jetted slender viscoelastic liquid filaments
Long and slender liquid filaments are produced during inkjet printing, which can
subsequently either retract to form a single droplet, or break up to form a primary droplet and …

[HTML][HTML] Influence of a surfactant on bubble bursting
EJ Vega, JM Montanero - Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science, 2024 - Elsevier
We study the bursting of a bubble covered with a surfactant experimentally. We conclude
that the bubble bursting takes longer than that of a surfactant-free bubble with the same …
