Elastic properties of liquid marbles
Liquid marbles are non-stick droplets coated with colloidal particles. Liquid marbles do not coalesce when pressed one to another or when colliding. The paper is devoted to the study of the quasi-elastic prope...

Jetting liquid marbles: study of the Taylor instability in immersed marbles
The behavior of liquid marbles encapsulated with various powders, immersed in oil, and exposed to a uniform DC field was investigated. At some critical value of the electric field, the Taylor instability of th...
