Abstract
This is an entry for the Gallery of Fluid Motion of the 61st
Annual Meeting of the APS-DFD ( fluid dynamics videos ). This
video shows the collision and rebound of viscoelastic drops
against a solid wall. Using a high speed camera, the process of
approach, contact and rebound of drops of a viscoelastic liquid is
observed. We found that these drops first splash, similar to what
is observed in Newtonian colliding drops; after a few instants,
the liquid recoils, recovering its original drop shape and bounce
off the wall.
Description
This entry contains the low resolution version of the video.
