Wetting of solid surfaces by liquid deposition, contact dispensing, drop transfer, collision of
wet particles or during coating processes is often accompanied by the formation of liquid …

We considered pattern formation, ie viscous fingering, in the ink splitting process between
an elastic flexographic printing plate and the substrate. We observed an unexpected scaling …

We use deep learning (DL) algorithms for the phenomenological classification of Saffman-
Taylor-instability-driven spontaneous pattern formation at the liquid meniscus in the fluid …

For the gravure printing process, ink transfer from the printing cylinder to the substrate is
studied in the parameter regime at the very border between point and lamella splitting. In …

Rapid fluid splitting in a gravure printing press is studied using high-speed video imaging.
The fluid flow and dynamics of the liquid-air meniscus in the wedge between a rigid printing …

A numerical simulation of the fluid flow in the gravure printing nip, based on a discontinuous
Galerkin algorithm, is used to study the fluid-splitting process and the transition between …

Gravure printing is a type of printing method that uses metal cylinders with engraved cells
that hold ink. The ink is transferred directly to the paper or other material by pressing it …

The appearance of a print is affected by the individual ink layers. If the ink is unevenly
distributed in inked areas on the substrate, it lowers the quality. This thesis puts focus on …
