The short-term transient falling dynamics of a dripping water drop in quiescent air has been investigated through both simulation and experiment. The focus is on the short term behavior and the time range considered covers about eight dominant second-mode oscillations of the drop after it is formed. Due to the small fluid inertia the growth of the drop is quasi-static and is well captured by the static pendant drop theory. Nevertheless, the pinching dynamics and the resulting post-formation state of the drop trigger a nonlinear oscillation when the drop falls. The initial shape of the drop when it is just formed is decomposed into spherical harmonic modes. The pinching dynamics such as interface overturning introduces small-scale variation on the drop contour, which in turn contributes to the finite amplitudes of the higher-order modes. Furthermore, the initial kinetic energy when the droplet is just formed is as important as the initial surface energy contained in the drop shape, and is found to amplify the initial oscillation amplitude and to induce a phase shift in the oscillation of all the modes. By incorporating both the initial surface and kinetic energy, the linear model for a free drop oscillation yields very good predictions for the second and third modes. The mode amplitude spectra show both the primary frequencies that are consistent with the Lambs theory and the secondary frequencies arising from different modes due to nonlinear inter-mode coupling. The complex transient flow inside and outside the drop is induced by the interaction between the falling motion and the nonlinear oscillation. The streamlines indicate that the internal flow is substantially different from the Hill vortex for a falling drop without oscillation. The temporal evolutions of both the internal flow and the wake morphology follow the dominant second oscillation mode.

Drop impact causes severe surface erosion, dictating many important natural, environmental and engineering processes and calling for tremendous prevention and preservation efforts. Nevertheless, despite extensive studies on various kinematic features of impacting drops over the last two decades, the dynamic process that leads to the drop-impact erosion is still far from clear. Here, we develop a method of high-speed stress microscopy, which measures the key dynamic properties of drop impact responsible for erosion, i.e., the shear stress and pressure distributions of impacting drops, with unprecedented spatiotemporal resolutions. Our experiments reveal the fast propagation of self-similar noncentral stress maxima underneath impacting drops and quantify the shear force on impacted substrates. Moreover, we examine the deformation of elastic substrates under impact and uncover impact-induced surface shock waves. Our study opens the door for quantitative measurements of the impact stress of liquid drops and sheds light on the mysterious origin of drop-impact erosion.
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.
A charged droplet can be electrodynamically levitated in the air using a quadrupole trap by typically applying a sinusoidal electric field. When a charged drop is levitated it exhibits surface oscillations simultaneously building charge density due t o continuous evaporation and subsequently undergoes breakup due to Rayleigh instability. In this work, we examined large-amplitude surface oscillations of a sub-Rayleigh charged drop and its subsequent breakup, levitated by various applied signals such as sine, square and ramp waveform at various imposed frequencies, using high-speed imaging (recorded at 100-130 thousand Frames Per Second (fps)). It is observed that the drop surface oscillates in sphere-prolate-sphere-oblate (SPSO) mode and seldom in the sphere-prolate-sphere (SPS) mode depending on the intricate interplay of various forces due to charge(q), the intensity of applied field ($Lambda$) and shift of the droplet from the geometric center of the trap ($z_{shift}$). The Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) analysis shows that the droplet oscillates with the forced frequency irrespective of the type of the applied waveform. While in the sinusoidal case, the nonlinearities are significant, in the square and ramp potentials, there is an admittance of all the harmonic frequencies of the applied potential. Interestingly, the breakup characteristics of a critically charged droplet is found to be unaffected by the type of the applied waveform. The experimental observations are validated with an analytical theory as well as with the Boundary Integral (BI) simulations in the potential flow limit and the results are found to be in a reasonable agreement.
Under continuous laser irradiation, noble metal nanoparticles immersed in water can quickly heat up, leading to the nucleation of so-called plasmonic bubbles. In this work, we want to further understand the bubble nucleation and growth mechanism. In particular, we quantitatively study the effect of the amount of dissolved air on the bubble nucleation and growth dynamics, both for the initial giant bubble, which forms shortly after switching on the laser and is mainly composed of vapor, and for the final life phase of the bubble, during which it mainly contains air expelled from water. We found that the bubble nucleation temperature depends on the gas concentration: the higher the gas concentration, the lower the bubble nucleation temperature. Also, the long-term diffusiondominated bubble growth is governed by the gas concentration. The radius of the bubbles grows as R(t)~t^1/3 for airequilibrated and air-oversaturated water. In contrast, in partially degassed water, the growth is much slower since, even for the highest temperature we achieve, the water remains undersaturated.
We investigate the effect of electrical charge on collisions of hydrodynamically interacting, micron-sized water droplets settling through quiescent air. The relative dynamics of charged droplets is determined by hydrodynamic interactions, particle a nd fluid inertia, and electrostatic forces. We analyse the resulting relative dynamics of oppositely charged droplets by determining its fixed points and their stable and unstable manifolds. The stable manifold of a saddle point forms a separatrix that separates colliding trajectories from those that do not collide. The qualitative conclusions from this theory are in excellent agreement with experiments.
