New paper now #openaccess under CC-BY licence. Thanks for arranging Open Research Leeds, funding Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council.
Very pleased to say that I have joined Oxford Fluid Dynamics Lab Engineering Science, Oxford University of Oxford today as a #postdoc in fluid dynamics. Thanks to The Royal Society for funding. Stay tuned for some exciting droplet research!
To bookend the week with good news, I passed my PhD viva this morning.🥳 Thanks to everyone involved, especially my lead supervisor Mark Wilson, for getting me to this point! EPSRC CDT Future Fluid Dynamics Leeds Institute for Fluid Dynamics (LIFD) Thanks to Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council UK Fluids Network for funding.
Our new #arXiv preprint: an Engineering Science, Oxford collab b/w Oxford Fluid Dynamics Lab & the Communications Group, showing good communication can be achieved with molecules using electrophoresis, for (e.g.) #labonachip devices: arxiv.org/abs/2103.10323 | Thanks Oxford University Press John Fell Fund; The Royal Society.
Pleasure to be invited to give Queen Mary University of London's Colloids and Interfaces Webinar today, about my PhD work on droplet coalescence/mixing. Slides available at tcsykes.com/talk/qmul-2021/
Thanks Matar Fluids Group! Our entry to the recent UK Fluids Network competition looks at splashing on thin films, imaged at over 100k fps. Oxford Fluid Dynamics Lab Phantom High-Speed
So cool to see our work featured by FY! Fluid Dynamics - thanks Nicole! And on the day that our JCIS cover appears - thanks Josie Engineering Science, Oxford!

Understanding the mechanics of drop splashing is valuable for improving technology in many fields. Research by Tom Sykes & Alfonso Castrejon-Pita 'Droplet splashing on curved substrates’ has been published in the Journal of Colloid & Interface Science eng.ox.ac.uk/news/insight-i… Oxford Fluid Dynamics Lab
The behaviour of droplets is complicated. 💧 Researchers at Engineering Science, Oxford are exploring how to reduce splashing from droplets, as controlling that behaviour can have big consequences across many industries. Read more ⬇️ eng.ox.ac.uk/news/insight-i…
