When two fluids don't mix well, they sometimes form strange patterns called "viscous fingering," or Saffman-Taylor ...

Compared to solid-to-solid inertial switches, the devices based on liquid-to-solid contact can avoid the signal bouncing and contact wear caused by the rigid contact between the proof mass and the ...

This paper is aimed at the existing similarities between surface discharges propagating radially at solid/liquid and solid/gas interfaces basing on the experimental outcomes acquired during the last ...

A surface forces apparatus and various optical visualization techniques were used to study the transition mechanisms between liquid-like snapping and solid-like failure at nano- and microscales.
