Presentation:
The “Dynamics and Organization of Soft Matter” team focuses on structurally complex fluids and materials, mostly derived from soft matter, media characterized by heterogeneous structure, and whose organization and properties depend on the scale of observation. This is a vast field, involving statistical mechanics, chemistry, physics and the physical chemistry of complex materials. The aim is to create new objects with controlled, stimulable or biomimetic structures, and to study the structure, microscopic dynamics, deformation and flow properties of complex fluids.

Bubble entrapment by drop impact
Only under certain conditions does a drop falling onto a bath entrap an air bubble. We propose a phenomenological law that describes these bubbling conditions in terms of Froude, Weber, and capillary numbers.Figure. Superimposed images of a drop and the cavity it...
