Expansion and retraction dynamics in drop-on-drop impacts on nonwetting surfaces

Impacts of liquid droplets on other stationary droplets on a surface are ubiquitous in numerous applications such as agricultural sprays, inkjet printing, and rain impact on surfaces. We experimentally study the maximum expansion diameter and retraction rate in drop-on-drop impacts on superhydrophob...
