Yves Couder, Emmanuel Fort, and coworkers recently discovered that a millimetric droplet
sustained on the surface of a vibrating fluid bath may self-propel through a resonant …

A falling liquid drop, after impact on a rigid substrate, deforms and spreads, owing to the
normal reaction force. Subsequently, if the substrate is nonwetting, the drop retracts and …

Spontaneous removal of condensed matter from surfaces is exploited in nature and in a
broad range of technologies to achieve self-cleaning,, anti-icing,,, and condensation control …

The walking droplet system has extended the range of classical systems to include several
features previously thought to be exclusive to quantum systems. We review the hierarchy of …

The impingement of drops onto solid surfaces, plays a crucial role in a variety of processes,
including inkjet printing, fog harvesting, anti-icing, dropwise condensation and spray …

Superhydrophobic surfaces decorated with macrostructures have attracted extensive
attention due to their excellent performance of reducing the contact time of impacting …

We present the results of a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of droplets
walking on a vertically vibrating fluid bath. Several walking states are reported, including …

Non-wetting substrates allow impacting liquid drops to spread, recoil and take-off, provided
they are not too heavy (Biance et al., J. Fluid Mech., vol. 554, 2006, pp. 47–66) or too …

We present the results of a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of
millimetric droplets bouncing on a vertically vibrating fluid bath. We first characterize the …

When a liquid drop falls on a solid substrate, the air layer between them delays the
occurrence of liquid–solid contact. For impacts on smooth substrates, the air film can even …
