Hydrodynamic quantum analogs

JWM Bush, AU Oza - Reports on progress in physics, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
The walking droplet system discovered by Yves Couder and Emmanuel Fort presents an
example of a vibrating particle self-propelling through a resonant interaction with its own …

Walking droplets through the lens of dynamical systems

A Rahman, D Blackmore - Modern Physics Letters B, 2020 - World Scientific
Over the past decade the study of fluidic droplets bouncing and skipping (or “walking”) on a
vibrating fluid bath has gone from an interesting experiment to a vibrant research field. The …

Inertio-capillary rebound of a droplet impacting a fluid bath

LFL Alventosa, R Cimpeanu, DM Harris - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - cambridge.org
The rebound of droplets impacting a deep fluid bath is studied both experimentally and
theoretically. Millimetric drops are generated using a piezoelectric droplet-on-demand …

Superwalking droplets

RN Valani, AC Slim, T Simula - Physical Review Letters, 2019 - APS
A walker is a droplet of liquid that self-propels on the free surface of an oscillating bath of the
same liquid through feedback between the droplet and its wave field. We have studied …

Faraday pilot-wave dynamics in a circular corral

M Durey, PA Milewski, Z Wang - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2020 - cambridge.org
A millimetric droplet of silicone oil may bounce and self-propel on the free surface of a
vertically vibrating fluid bath due to the droplet's interaction with its accompanying Faraday …

Free rings of bouncing droplets: stability and dynamics

MMP Couchman, JWM Bush - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2020 - cambridge.org
We present the results of a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the
stability of rings of millimetric droplets bouncing on the surface of a vibrating liquid bath. As …

Capillary-scale solid rebounds: experiments, modelling and simulations

CA Galeano-Rios, R Cimpeanu, IA Bauman… - Journal of Fluid …, 2021 - cambridge.org
A millimetre-size superhydrophobic sphere impacting on the free surface of a quiescent bath
can be propelled back into the air by capillary effects and dynamic fluid forces, whilst …

Emergence of superwalking droplets

RN Valani, J Dring, TP Simula, AC Slim - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2021 - cambridge.org
A new class of self-propelled droplets, coined superwalkers, has been shown to emerge
when a bath of silicone oil is vibrated simultaneously at a given frequency and its …

Damped-driven system of bouncing droplets leading to deterministic diffusive behavior

A Rahman - Physical Review E, 2023 - APS
Damped-driven systems are ubiquitous in science, however, the damping and driving
mechanisms are often quite convoluted. This paper presents an experimental and …

Oscillons, walking droplets, and skipping stones (an overview)

RA Ibrahim - Nonlinear Dynamics, 2021 - Springer
This article considers additional phenomena that complement the earlier topics addressed
by Ibrahim [(Liquid Sloshing Dynamics: Theory and Applications. Cambridge University …
