Abstract
Bouncing dynamics of a trailing drop off-center impacting a leading drop with varying time intervals and Weber numbers are investigated experimentally. Whether the trailing drop impacts during the spreading or receding process of the leading drop is determined by the time interval. For a short time interval of 0.15 ≤ Δt* ≤ 0.66, the trailing drop impacts during the spreading of the leading drop, and the drops completely coalesce and rebound; for a large time interval of 0.66 < Δt* ≤ 2.21, the trailing drop impacts during the receding process, and the drops partially coalesce and rebound. Whether the trailing drop directly impacts the surface or the liquid film of the leading drop is determined by the Weber number. The trailing drop impacts the surface directly at moderate Weber numbers of 16.22 ≤ We ≤ 45.42, while it impacts the liquid film at large Weber numbers of 45.42 < We ≤ 64.88. Intriguingly, when the trailing drop impacts the surface directly or the receding liquid film, the contact time increases linearly with the time interval but independent of the Weber number; when the trailing drop impacts the spreading liquid film, the contact time suddenly increases, showing that the force of the liquid film of the leading drop inhibits the receding of the trailing drop. Finally, a theoretical model of the contact time for the drops is established, which is suitable for different impact scenarios of the successive off-center impact. This study provides a quantitative relationship to calculate the contact time of drops successively impacting a superhydrophobic surface, facilitating the design of anti-icing surfaces.

Abstract
The rebound behaviors of multiple droplets simultaneously impacting a superhydrophobic surface were investigated via lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) simulations. Three rebound regions were identified, i.e., an edge-dominating region, a center-dominating region, and an independent rebound region. The occurrence of the rebound regions strongly depends on the droplet spacing and the associated Weber and Reynolds numbers. Three new rebound morphologies, i.e., a pin-shaped morphology, a downward comb-shaped morphology, and an upward comb-shaped morphology, were presented. Intriguingly, in the edge-dominating region, the central droplets experience a secondary wetting process to significantly prolong the contact time. However, in the center-dominating region, the contact time is dramatically shortened because of the strong interactions generated by the central droplets and the central ridges. These findings provide useful information for practical applications such as self-cleaning, anticorrosion, anti-icing, and so forth.

Abstract
In this study, we extend the pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann model proposed by Huang and Wu [J. Comput. Phys. 327, 121 (2016)10.1016/j.jcp.2016.09.030] to a three-dimensional model for practical simulations of multiphase flows with high density ratio. In this model, an additional source term is introduced into the evolution function, and the performed high-order Chapman-Enskog analysis demonstrates that the Navier-Stokes equations with accurate pressure tensor are recovered. Also, an alternative geometric formulation is developed to obtain various contact angles and an iteration scheme is involved in the initialization to improve the stability of the model. Theoretical and numerical investigations both validate that the thermodynamic consistency and tuning surface tension independently of density ratio is achieved through varying the two free parameters in the source term. Numerical simulations of droplet wetting indicate that a large degree range of contact angles can be precisely realized with the implementation of the wetting boundary scheme. Further dynamic examinations of droplet impingement on a thin film and a dry surface also verify the stability and capability of the proposed pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann model.

Abstract
The dynamic behaviors of two droplets successively impacting inclined surfaces are simulated by a three-dimensional pseudopotential lattice Boltzmann model based on multi-relaxation-time. The effect of velocity ratio of two successive droplets on the contact time is investigated and two rebounding regimes are identified depending on whether the coalesced droplet retouches the surface or not. Increasing the velocity ratio leads to a stronger interaction between the two droplets and the phenomenon of coalesced droplet retouching the surface is observed when the velocity ratio exceeds a threshold, resulting in a longer contact time. An outcome map of droplet rebounding is obtained at various velocity ratios and contact angles of surface. It is found that the coalesced droplet cannot rebound from the surface at a larger velocity ratio and a lower contact angle of surface. Furthermore, the effect of the length between impact points on the contact time is exhibited, and a longer length is beneficial to coalesced droplet rebounding.
