Handling small amounts of liquid is an essential task in a broad field of applications ranging from medical and pharmaceutical engineering to analytical chemistry. The dispensing of liquids is typically done using pipettes that rely on a pressure difference to pull a liquid volume into a small reservoir after which the pressure difference is reversed for releasing the liquid volume.
Based on research at our institute we propose a novel type of pipette that leverages surface tension gradients that induce a so-called Marangoni flow instead of using pressure gradients for creating the flow. Our experimental results show that this could allow for pipetting tiny amounts of liquids or even gases. There are numerous aspects of this novel approach that set it apart from classical pipettes making it superior in some application contexts. Within the ADP, a working demonstrator of this novel pipette should be designed, build and used to demonstrate the feasibility of this approach.

Robots are extremely versatile machines with almost endless application possibilities. In the course of an exhibition, a prototype demonstrator of these diverse applications was developed, in which our 7-axis collaborative robot arm ‘Rica’ is used to draw faces. Images are converted into line drawings and paths to be traversed are calculated from them. This demonstrator is now to be further developed and upgraded.

Masterthesis, Advanced Design Project (ADP)
The aim of this student project is the development and implementation of an intelligent control strategy for the Slip Length Tribometer (SLT). In the micrometer range, nonlinear effects caused by capillary forces pose challenges for classical control methods. The student investigates and implements suitable approaches such as fuzzy logic, expert systems for PID controllers, or neural networks, and integrates them into the existing LabVIEW program. The focus is on dynamic PID scaling as well as the analysis of the acquired data to evaluate control performance.

After flying in a freezing condition, the aircraft wings get to a temperature below 0°C. When these wings interact with a cloud, it develops ice structures. The unprotected area on the wing poses risk of runback icing. One such areas and our area of interest is the grooves near the flaps and spoilers. Any real-life groove must have a groove curvature, which is also important while studying liquid transport. In the literature, such a groove has already been studied under an isothermal condition. However, the effects of heat transfer and phase change, which is very prominent in aircraft icing applications, has never been discussed. To capture these effects, a known but highly wettable surface must be used. As ice is super-hydrophilic, which tend to increase the rivulet spread and hence also increases the ice effected zones inside the grooves

The evaporation of liquid droplets, a phenomenon ubiquitous in daily life, has garnered significant attention in scientific research. Of particular interest is the evaporation of droplets laden with nonvolatile solutes, which results in intricate deposition patterns on the substrate. Understanding the mechanisms underlying the formation of these patterns is crucial for various technical applications, spanning from coating and inkjet printing to disease detection. This work delves into the development of a comprehensive model of the specific ring-like deposition patterns observed during the drying of droplets.
