Role of hydrodynamic flows in chemically driven droplet division
We study the hydrodynamics and shape changes of chemically active droplets. In non-spherical droplets, surface tension generates hydrodynamic flows that drive liquid droplets into a spherical shape. Here we show that spherical droplets that are maintained away from thermodynamic equilibrium by chemi...
