Water-Repellency and Anisotropic Wettability of Micro-Grooved Polymer Surfaces [PDF]
한국정밀공학회지, 2020 Superhydrophobicity and anisotropic wettability can be simultaneously achieved by simple groove pattern on a surface. To verify those characteristics experimentally, we fabricated the micro-grooved surfaces with four different groove widths.

Effect of contact angle hysteresis on measuring matric suction in unsaturated sandy soil
Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2023 The contact angle plays an important role in matric suction of unsaturated soils, but few studies consider the effect of contact angle hysteresis on matric suction. In this paper, taking sandy soil as an example, the influence of contact angle hysteresis

On the Dynamic Contact Angle in Capillary Flows [PDF]
Journal of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering, 2021 The displacement of the contact line (CL) between two arbitrary immiscible flowing fluids was modeled. The present model is valid for a wide range of viscosity ratios of the phases. This is while the previously developed models reported in the literature
