Meniscus size and shape influence wave energy transmission through liquid barriers

physicsworld.com

Meniscus size and shape significantly impact wave energy transmission through liquid barriers, a novel experimental finding. Researchers observed that a less curved meniscus allows more wave energy to pass, while a steeper curve reduces it, with small adjustments causing substantial changes. This discovery could lead to new fluid control methods in open channels, benefiting applications like microfluidics and thermal management.
