Oscillation of sessile drops is important to many applications. In the present study, the natural oscillation of a sessile drop on flat surfaces with free contact lines (FCL) is investigated through numerical and theoretical analysis. The FCL condition represents a limit of contact line mobility, i.e. the contact angle remains constant when the contact line moves. In the numerical simulation, the interfaces are captured by the volume-of-fluid method and the contact angle at the boundary is specified using the height-function method. The oscillation frequencies for sessile drops with FCL are mainly controlled by the contact angle and the Bond number and a parametric study is carried out to characterize their effects on the frequencies for the first and high-order modes. Particular attention is paid to the frequency of the first mode, since it is usually the dominant mode. An inviscid theoretical model for the first mode is developed. The model yields an explicit expression for the first-mode frequency as a function of the contact angle and the Bond number, with all parameters involved fully determined by the equilibrium drop theory and the simulation. The predicted frequencies for a wide range of contact angles agree very well with the simulation results for small Bond numbers. The frequencies for both the first and high-order modes decrease with the contact angle and increase with the Bond number. For the high-order modes, the frequencies for different modes generally scale with the Rayleigh frequencies. The scaling relation performs better for small Bond numbers and large contact angles. A simple model is proposed to predict the frequencies of high-order modes for large contact angles and a good agreement with the simulation results is observed.

The impact of liquid drops on solid surfaces is ubiquitous in nature, and of practical importance in many industrial processes. A drop hitting a flat surface retains a circular symmetry throughout the impact process. Here we show that a drop impingin
g on Echevaria leaves exhibits asymmetric bouncing dynamics with distinct spreading and retraction along two perpendicular directions. This is a direct consequence of the cylindrical leaves which have a convex/concave architecture of size comparable to the drop. Systematic experimental investigations on mimetic surfaces and lattice Boltzmann simulations reveal that this novel phenomenon results from an asymmetric momentum and mass distribution that allows for preferential fluid pumping around the drop rim. The asymmetry of the bouncing leads to ~40% reduction in contact time.
Contact angle is an important parameter in characterizing the wetting properties of fluids. The most common methods for measuring the contact angle is to measure it directly from the profile curve of a sessile drop, a method with certain inherent dra
wbacks. Here we describe an alternative method that uses the height and volume of a sessile drop as constraints to construct its profile by numerical integration of its two governing differential equations. The integration yields, self consistently, the average value of the contact angle along the entire contact line as well as the footprint radius of the drop and its crown radius of curvature. As a test case, the new method is used to obtain the contact angle of pure water on two different substrates, Teflon and Lucite. For each substrate, four drops ranging in volume from 10 {mu}l to 40 {mu}l are used. The computed contact angles are consistent across the four different drop sizes for each substrate and are in agreement with typical literature values.
When a solid plate is withdrawn from a liquid bath, a receding contact line is formed where solid, liquid, and gas meet. Above a critical speed $U_{cr}$, a stationary contact line can no longer exist and the solid will eventually be covered completel
y by a liquid film. Here we show that the bifurcation diagram of this coating transition changes qualitatively, from discontinuous to continuous, when decreasing the inclination angle of the plate. We show that this effect is governed by the presence of capillary waves, illustrating that the large scale flow strongly effects the maximum speed of dewetting.
This paper represents a theoretical and an experimental study of the spreading dynamics of a liquid droplet, generated by a needle free deposition system called the liquid needle droplet deposition technique. This technique utilizes a continuous liqu
id jet generated from a pressurized dosing system which generates a liquid drop on a substrate to be characterized by optical contact angle measurements. Although many studies have explored the theoretical modelling of the droplet spreading scenario, a theoretical model representing the spreading dynamics of a droplet, generated by the jet impact and continuous addition of liquid mass, is yet to be addressed. In this study, we developed a theoretical model based on the overall energy balance approach which enables us to study on the physics of variation of droplet spreading under surrounding medium of various viscosities. The numerical solution of the non-linear ordinary differential equation has provided us the opportunity to comment on the variation of droplet spreading, as a function of Weber number ($We$), Reynolds number ($Re$) and Bond number ($Bo$) ranging from 0.5-3, 75-150, and 0.001-0.3, respectively. We have also presented a liquid jet impact model in order to predict the initial droplet diameter as an initial condition for the proposed governing equation. The model has been verified further with the experimental measurements and reasonable agreement has been observed. Experimental observations and theoretical investigations also highlight the precision, repeatability and wide range of the applicability of liquid needle drop deposition technique.
When a liquid drop impacts on a heated substrate, it can remain deposited, or violently boil in contact, or lift off with or without ever touching the surface. The latter is known as the Leidenfrost effect. The duration and area of the liquid--substr
ate contact is highly relevant for the heat transfer, as well as other effects such as corrosion. However, most experimental studies rely on side view imaging to determine contact times, and those are often mixed with the time until the drop lifts off from the substrate. Here, we develop and validate a reliable method of contact time determination using high-speed X-ray and Total Internal Reflection measurements. We exemplarily compare contact and lift-off times on flat silicon and sapphire substrates. We show that drops can rebound even without formation of a complete vapor layer, with a wide range of lift-off times. On sapphire, we find a local minimum of lift-off times much shorter than by capillary rebound in the comparatively low-temperature regime of transition boiling / thermal atomization. We elucidate the underlying mechanism related to spontaneous rupture of the lamella and receding of the contact area.
