Journal ArticleDOI
Capillary flow as the cause of ring stains from dried liquid drops
TL;DR: In this article, the authors ascribe the characteristic pattern of the deposition to a form of capillary flow in which pinning of the contact line of the drying drop ensures that liquid evaporating from the edge is replenished by liquid from the interior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Granular solids, liquids, and gases
TL;DR: Granular materials are ubiquitous in the world around us as discussed by the authors and have properties that are different from those commonly associated with either solids, liquids, or gases, and some of the special properties of granular materials and describe recent research developments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contact line deposits in an evaporating drop
TL;DR: A theory is described that predicts the flow velocity, the rate of growth of the ring, and the distribution of solute within the drop that is driven by the loss of solvent by evaporation and the geometrical constraint that the drop maintain an equilibrium droplet shape with a fixed boundary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supercooled Liquids and Glasses
TL;DR: A review of recent progress in the study of supercooled liquids and glasses can be found in this article, where several basic features of the dynamics and thermodynamics of super cooled liquid and glasses are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Jamming is not just cool any more
Andrea J. Liu,Sidney R. Nagel +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was suggested that the properties of jammed solids should be considered as belonging to a new class of materials known as fragile matter which, because of its unusual mechanical properties, requires a new theoretical description.
