On the bridge hypothesis in the glass transition of freestanding polymer films

Electrical noise in electrolytes: a theoretical perspective

“…We also note that other forms of DFT, in particular stochastic DFT (with various approximations), have recently been used to predict the conductivity of the electrolyte, including thermal noise and in some cases hydrodynamic effects, both at equilibrium and for nonequilibrium steady-states in the presence of an applied electric eld, in the bulk and under connement. [24][25][26][27][28][144][145][146][147][148][149]…”

Ionic fluctuations in finite volumes: fractional noise and hyperuniformity

“…As mentioned in the introduction, the interplay between τ Debye and τ Diff can produce a variety of timescales that could all explain part of the behaviour. 32,63–65 To understand the relaxation behaviour more systematically, we explore in Fig. 5 the relaxation of C Q ( t )e t / τ Debye .…”

“…However, there is a broad intermediate region where T Q spans a combination of both timescales – resonating with other studies which also find numerous timescales to characterize the charge of electrodes. 32,63–65…”

“…De facto , various mixed timescales, as a combination λ D ν L obs 2− ν / D with ν a real number, will also play a role, as was seen in the charging dynamics of two parallel plates separated by a distance L playing the role of L obs here. 32,63–65 Which timescale dominates fluctuations in finite volumes?…”

Plateau-Rayleigh instability of a viscous film on a soft fiber

“…However, there has been a lack of investigations of the PRI when the solid interface is deformable. Interestingly, soft solids such as gels and elastomers are ubiquitous in material and biological (a) E-mail: thomas.salez@cnrs.fr (corresponding author) sciences and their coupling with fluid flows is a current topic of research, as evidenced by soft wetting [40,41], soft levelling [42], soft dip-coating [43], contactless rheology of soft materials [44][45][46], or soft-lubrication lift [47,48]. In this article, we theoretically reveal and characterize the PRI of a viscous film on a fiber consisting of a rigid cylindrical core coated with a thin compressible elastic layer.…”
