How does a droplet dry when space is confined?

Experiments by B. Sobac and colleagues using interferometry and controlled humidity track the evaporation of binary liquid droplets in a 2D geometry.

Useful for studying droplet evaporation.

Ekman spiral (Oceanography 🌊)

Ekman transport is part of Ekman motion theory, first investigated in 1902 by Vagn Walfrid Ekman. Winds are the main source of energy for ocean circulation, and Ekman transport is a component of wind-driven ocean current. Ekman transport occurs when ocean surface waters are influenced by the friction force acting on them via the wind. As the...

Von Foerster equation (Ecology 🏞️)

The McKendrick–von Foerster equation is a linear first-order partial differential equation encountered in several areas of mathematical biology – for example, demography and cell proliferation modeling; it is applied when age structure is an important feature in the mathematical model. It was first presented by Anderso...
