Hydrophobic attraction, macromolecule adhesion, and even biofouling occur when the surface contact angle exceeds 65°, known as the "Berg limit." While this threshold seems widely applicable, the reasons behind its universality remain unclear. In the seminar, I will discuss our … Read More

Speakers: Žiga Pandur (Faculty of Mechanical Engineering) Cavitation, a sudden decrease in pressure that triggers the formation of vapor and gas bubbles in a liquid medium, can cause many important industrial problems, such as material loss, noise and vibrations in … Read More

Speakers: Anton Gradišek (Jožef Stefan Institute) Honeybees and bumblebees are social insects and are among the most important pollinators in their ecosystems. They are fascinating creatures and even if we think that we know them well, there is still much … Read More

Even though there are clear indications of many-body interactions in the dense microgel suspensions, there is still no adequate general description of the phenomena. One possible avenue for exploration of many-body effects is the coarse-grained liquid-drop model, where the soft … Read More

Bubbles in liquids, soft and squeezy objects made of gas and vapour, yet so strong as to destroy any material. At first glance bubbles in water might seem like trivial objects with simple physics describing them. However, upon further investigation … Read More
