Retention of E. coli and water on the skin after liquid contact

The frequent contact people have with liquids containing pathogenic microorganisms provides opportunities for disease transmission. In this work, we quantified the transfer of bacteria—using E. coli as a model- from liquid to skin, estimated liquid retenti ...

Influence of Minor Cr Additions on Crystal Growth in Rapidly Solidified Al-20Zn Alloys

Michel Rappaz

It has been discovered quite recently that Icosahedral Short-Range Order (ISRO) of atoms in the liquid phase of metallic alloys surrounding some trace elements added to the melt can influence both the nucleation and growth of the primary phase. In this wor ...

Liquid phase in situ spectroscopic investigations of heterogeneous catalysts

Thibault Xavier Florian Fovanna

In this work, we have studied various aspects of catalysts and catalytic processes at the solid-liquid interface, e.g. the reduction of supported PdO, the formation of Pd hydrides, their quantification, the their reactivity in a transient in time-resolved ...

Surface textures suppress viscoelastic braking on soft substrates

John Martin Kolinski, Martin Louis Francis Coux

A gravity-driven droplet will rapidly flow down an inclined substrate, resisted only by stresses inside the liquid. If the substrate is compliant, with an elastic modulus G < 100 kPa, the droplet will markedly slow as a consequence of viscoelastic braking. ...

Dynamic wetting in pressure-infiltration of ceramic particle preforms by molten metal

Gionata Schneider

This thesis investigates the interaction between mechanically induced flow of a liquid metal into a porous solid, and kinetic effects at the triple line. The approach is experimental and focuses on metal-ceramic systems for which the literature gives value ...

Picture of the wet electron: a localized transient state in liquid water

Alfredo Pasquarello, Francesco Ambrosio, Michele Pizzochero

A transient state of the excess electron in liquid water preceding the development of the solvation shell, the so-called wet electron, has been invoked to explain spectroscopic observations, but its binding energy and atomic structure have remained highly ...

High-speed imaging of high pressures produced by cavitation bubbles

Mohamed Farhat, Danail Obreschkow, Outi Supponen

Cavitation bubbles, when correctly tuned, may provide interesting mechanical and chemical effects to their surroundings owing to their violent collapse. Such an event may produce high-speed liquid jetting, extreme heating, as well as pressures of thousands ...

Fluidic Bypass Structures for Improving the Robustness of Liquid Scanning Probes

David Philipp Taylor

Objective: We aim to improve operational robustness of liquid scanning probes. Two main failure modes to be addressed are an obstruction of the flow path of the processing liquid and a deviation from the desired gap distance between probe and sample. Metho ...

Surfing the capillary wave: Wetting dynamics beneath an impacting drop

John Martin Kolinski, Ramin Kaviani

The initiation of contact between liquid and a dry solid is of great fundamental and practical importance. We experimentally probe the dynamics of wetting that occur when an impacting drop first contacts a dry surface. We show that, initially, wetting is m ...

Determination and evaluation of the nonadditivity in wetting of molecularly heterogeneous surfaces

Francesco Stellacci, Michele Ceriotti, Sylvie Roke, Quy Ong Khac, Halil Ibrahim Okur, David Mark Wilkins, Zhi Luo, Anna Murello, Filip Kovacik

The interface between water and folded proteins is very complex. Proteins have "patchy" solvent-accessible areas composed of domains of varying hydrophobicity. The textbook understanding is that these domains contribute additively to interfacial properties ...
