I recently co-authored an Annual Review article on the capillary driven phenomena of soft solids. Hopefully this provides a useful gateway to this interesting field with broad applications in engineering and biology. go.shr.lc/4iAIONT

Shaping Capillary Solids from Statics to Dynamics

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 length, which...

🚨 Minimal quantization model in Pilot-Wave Hydrodynamics 🚨 We identify and analytically approximate the spatio-temporal nonlocal forces responsible for the orbital quantization of walking droplets. journals.aps.org/prl/abstrac…

Minimal Quantization Model in Pilot-Wave Hydrodynamics

Investigating how classical systems may manifest dynamics analogous to those of quantum systems is a broad subject of fundamental interest. Walking droplets, which self-propel through a resonant...

🚨 Anderson Localization of Walking Droplets 🚨 We demonstrate that walking droplets over random submerged topography can spontaneously localize like a wave, similar to quantum particles in disordered media. journals.aps.org/prx/abstrac…

Anderson Localization of Walking Droplets

Millimeter-sized droplets on a vibrating fluid surface can localize in disordered environments much like electrons do, showcasing a unique system for exploring the boundary between classical and...

Big things have small beginnings - What is it about bubbles that make them so interesting? Here is a little tribute video I made with the help of stock videos and some creative writing. Enjoy.

Here we develop models to describe the free and forced oscillation of a complex drop with arbitrary rheology. We derive an equation for the frequency response of the drop which can be used to experimentally measure the complex shear modulus.
