A mathematical model for droplet separation by surface tension using contact cantilevers -- applications to {\it{in situ}} diagnosis and treatment
This work provides an exact mathematical characterization of the meniscus formed by a liquid of density $\rho$ (model for tumor tissue) when probed with a cantilever device, operating by gravity (acceleration $g$) and with surface tension coefficient $\sigma$ (material-dependent for the specific choice of liquid and cantilever). The shape and extremal parameters (maximum height $\mathcal{H}$, break-off volume $\mathcal{V}$) of the meniscus formed, as functions of $\sigma, \rho$, are found by an exact analysis. Having knowledge of the explicit relationship between these parameters allows to perform in one procedure both diagnosis and treatment.

Characterization of partial wetting by CMAS droplets using multiphase many-body dissipative particle dynamics and data-driven discovery based on PINNs
The molten sand, a mixture of calcia, magnesia, alumina, and silicate, known as CMAS, is characterized by its high viscosity, density, and surface tension. The unique properties of CMAS make it a challenging material to …
SandSymbolic RegressionA reaction network model of microscale liquid-liquid phase separation reveals effects of spatial dimension
Proteins can form droplets via liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) in cells. Recent experiments demonstrate that LLPS is qualitatively different on two-dimensional (2d) surfaces compared to three-dimensional (3d) solut…
Pendant Drop Tensiometry: A Machine Learning Approach
Modern pendant drop tensiometry relies on numerical solution of the Young-Laplace equation and allow to determine the surface tension from a single picture of a pendant drop with high precision. Most of these techniques …
BIG-bench Machine LearningOn complexity of branching droplets in electrical field
Decanol droplets in a thin layer of sodium decanoate with sodium chloride exhibit bifurcation branching growth due to interplay between osmotic pressure, diffusion and surface tension. We aimed to evaluate if morphology …
RAISE: A self-driving laboratory for interfacial property formulation discovery
Surface wettability is a critical design parameter for biomedical devices, coatings, and textiles. Contact angle measurements quantify liquid-surface interactions, which depend strongly on liquid formulation. Herein, we …
