Correction for 'Non-faradaic impedance characterization of an evaporating droplet for microfluidic and biosensing applications' by Piyush Dak et al., Lab Chip, 2014, 14, 2469-2479.

We describe the dynamical evaporation of a black hole as classical evolution in time an Anti-de Sitter braneworld. A bulk whose horizon intersects brane yields dual coupled to quantum conformal fields. The this happens when slides off brane, making on shrink. use large-D effective theory Einstein equations solve these systems. With method, we study variety holes interacting with colder radiatio...

Liquid fuel injection and atomization have a significant influence on the combustion and emission characteristics of diesel engines. Using x-ray radiography, it is possible to obtain quantitative and time-resolved data in the primary breakup region close to the injector nozzle. However, most previous studies on model validations have employed optical measurements that are not applicable in this...

As many a coffee drinker knows, a drying drop of coffee typically leaves behind a ring-shaped stain of small grounds. Though the phenomenon is common, the mechanisms that drive it are rich with physics. As first elucidated by Robert Deegan and colleagues in 1997, the coffee ring results from radially outward fluid flows induced by so-called contact line pinning: The outer edge of a spilled coff...

We investigate hitherto-unexplored flow characteristics inside a sessile droplet evaporating on heated hydrophobic and superhydrophobic surfaces and propose the use of evaporation-induced flow as a means to promote efficient "on-the-spot" mixing in microliter-sized droplets. Evaporative cooling at the droplet interface establishes a temperature gradient that induces buoyancy-driven convection i...
