Universality of Droplet Impingement: Low-to-High Viscosities and Surface Tensions

When a droplet impinges on a solid surface, its kinetic energy is mainly converted to capillary energy and viscous dissipation energy, the ratio of which depends on the wettability of the target surface and the liquid properties. Currently, there is no experimental or theoretical evidence that sugge...
