Freezing contact line

Ice accretion on airplanes, wires, or roadways, the formation of ice  
falls, ice stalactites, frozen rivers or aufeis, are a few examples of  
ice structures formed by the solidification of capillary flows (drop,  
rivulet, film). Among the many scientific questions that remain open  
regarding these phenomena, the effect of freezing on the contact line  
motion is undoubtedly one of the most important and mysterious. In  
this talk, we experimentally investigate this intricate coupling of  
advancing contact line and freezing by exploring the spreading of a  
water droplet on a cold substrate in various situations. This work  
allows us to propose the main mechanisms that explain the splashing  
and arrest behaviours of a contact line due to solidification.
