abstract = {This study explores the effects of nanoparticles on the dynamics of drop spreading under external vibration, presenting an advance in the
understanding of nanofluid behavior on vibrating substrates. This work introduces insights into nanoparticle-mediated drop spreading, offering
implications for improving particulate coatings, mini-mixers, and particle segregation technologies. By employing a twofold approach
that combines oscillating drop dynamics with internal flow pattern analysis, we find how even small concentrations of hydrophilic or hydrophobized
silica nanoparticles inside water sessile droplets significantly alter the spreading process on silanized glass surfaces. Our study allows
distinct drop spreading regimes to be identified based on nanoparticle concentration and vibration amplitude, for both hydrophilic and
hydrophobized nanoparticles. Through a comprehensive analysis, we demonstrate that the vibration-triggered spreading of nanofluids can
lead to a stable and controlled manipulation of complex liquids.},
