New numerical solutions to the so-called selection problem for one and two steadily translating bubbles in an unbounded Hele-Shaw cell are presented. Our approach relies on conformai mapping which, ...

The topic of water and the way it can move producing water droplets that leap -- propelled by surface tension -- and frost that jumps -- by way of electrostatics -- is a central focus of a group of ...

SAN ANTONIO – Want to keep your kids learning this summer? Here are three fun and easy experiments to explore surface tension with your kids at home with a little help from Andrea Cook with Mad ...

In a breakthrough in droplet physics, researchers find a way to get centimetre-scale water droplets to jump into the air ...

Bubbles are an optimal way to carry heat, and Jonathan Boreyko's team has engineered a surface that makes them jump to carry even more “During my PhD research at Duke University, I discovered jumping ...
