The technique of acoustic levitation normally produces a standing wave and the potential
well of the sound field can be used to trap small objects. Since no solid surface is involved it …

Dilational rheology has been proved to be a powerful tool to investigate equilibrium and
dynamic properties of adsorption films by recent studies. Interfacial dilational properties play …

The effect of an insoluble surfactant on the transient deformation and asymptotic shape of a
spherical drop that is subjected to a linear shear or extensional flow at vanishing Reynolds …

The use of optical trapping techniques to manipulate probe particles for performing micro-
rheological measurements on a surrounding fluid is well-established. Here, we review …

Recent developments of techniques used to measure dynamic surface tension aim at
incorporating measurements during area changes, and improving speed of measurements …

An unprecedented microgravity observation of maximal shape oscillations of a surfactant-
bearing water drop the size of a ping-pong ball was observed during a mission of Space …

The shape of a soft solid is largely determined by the balance between elastic and surface
energies with capillarity becoming important at length scales smaller than the elastocapillary …

In modern drop-on-demand inkjet printing, the jetted droplets contain a mixture of solvents,
pigments and surfactants. In order to accurately control the droplet formation process, its in …

Experimental studies of low-speed droplets colliding with a flat solid surface are performed
to record the impact force and deformation by using a highly sensitive piezoelectric …

This paper reviews the most significant developments in the understanding of the process of
mixing of a dispersed fluid phase in a continuous fluid phase which have been published …
