Séminaire PMMH - Etienne Jambon-Puillet, LadhyX

Vendredi 24 mai 2024 de 11h00 à 12h00 - Salle réunion PMMH 1

Pendant drops on the underside of wet surfaces : growth, motion and solidification

Pendant drops spontaneously appear on the underside of wet surfaces through the Rayleigh-Taylor instability. Due to their detrimental effect on coatings and their tendency to drip, several strategies have been developed to avoid their formation and rationalized with linear stability analysis. I will first briefly show how the Rayleigh-Taylor instability can be harnessed to make patterned elastic surfaces with a tunable spacing [1] and aspect ratio [2]. However, having a fine control over the drops in the non-linear regime of the instability is hard. They are connected to a thin film with which they continuously exchange liquid. They thus have no contact line and move around easily which disrupt the pattern. I investigate these drops dynamic experimentally, numerically and theoretically with a model system that consider a single pendant drop surrounded by a uniform thin film. I will show that under smooth surfaces, a transition from growth to decay occurs as the substrate inclination angle is increased by a few degrees [3]. I will then consider uneven surfaces, and show that the underlying topography can control the drop motion via gravito-capillary pinning-like forces [4].

Instructions générales pour les conférenciers

Le public du séminaire est très hétérogène (rien qu’au PMMH nous travaillons sur des thématiques très diverses, mécanique des fluides, des milieux granulaires, des solides, physique statistique, physique du mouillage, micro-fluidique, biophysique,...) l’objectif est donc de ne pas faire un séminaire trop spécialiste : au moins la première moitié du séminaire à un niveau accessible pour celui qui ne connaît rien sur le sujet.

Le séminaire a lieu à 11h. rendez-vous 15 minutes avant pour installer et tester la projection.

Le séminaire dure environ 45 minutes pour laisser un peu de temps pour discuter à la fin.
