Transition time of a bouncing drop
Drops impacting superhydrophobic surfaces have a rim-lamella structure at maximum spreading. The volume ratio of these two components is shown to be Weber-independent and related to a new Weber-independent characteristic time, the transition time. Volume ratios from experiments and simulations at different Ohnesorge numbers are shown.
