Description
Summary:The dynamical perspectives of bubble in a liquid droplet on smooth solid substrate can be revealed by investigating interfacial self-assembly phenomena. Moreover, the complexity in such system can be scaled down into a transparent immobile non-Newtonian droplet. Here we present the dynamical approaches of internal microbubbles through coalescence and implosion near the edge of the droplet. The aggregation density of microbubbles near the rim is greater than the central region corresponding to the dynamical behaviour of the droplet marked with capillary flow along the triple phase contact line. We have also numerically analysed the occurrence of aggregation density of internal microbubbles near the edge by implementing boundary integral method. Our numerical results show good agreement with the experimental findings until the aggregation density have occurred near the edge of the droplet. This understanding ascribes distinctive skew exponential power law characteristics through coalescence and implosion.
