Pinning-Depinning Mechanism of the Contact Line during Evaporation of Nanodroplets on Heated Heterogeneous Surfaces: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation.

Langmuir, 2019
Droplet evaporation on heterogeneous or patterned surfaces has numerous potential applications, for example, inkjet printing. The effect of surface heterogeneities on the evaporation of a nanometer-sized cylindrical droplet on a solid surface is studied ...

Stribeck Curve for Starved Line Contacts

Journal of Tribology, 2006
This paper discusses a mixed lubrication model in order to predict the Stribeck curve for starved lubricated line contacts. This model is based on a combination of the contact model of Greenwood and Williamson and the elastohydrodynamic (EHL) film thickness for starved line contacts.

Contact-line fluctuations and dynamic wetting.

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2019
HYPOTHESIS The thermal fluctuations of the three-phase contact line formed between a liquid and a solid at equilibrium can be used to determine key parameters that control dynamic wetting.

Stability of Surface Nanobubbles without Contact Line Pinning.

Langmuir, 2019
Although the stability of most surface nanobubbles observed can be well interpreted by contact line pinning and supersaturation theory, there is increasing evidence that at least for certain situations, contact line pinning is not required for nanobubble

Electrothermally modulated contact line dynamics of a binary fluid in a patterned fluidic environment

The Physics of Fluids, 2018
In this paper, we depict the interfacial electro-thermo-chemical-hydrodynamics of two immiscible fluids in a microchannel with substrates patterned by ribs. The motion of the binary fluids is set by an alternating current electrothermal (ACET) mechanism.

Surface Stresses and a Force Balance at a Contact Line.

Langmuir, 2018
Results of the coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations are used to show that the force balance analysis at the triple-phase contact line formed at an elastic substrate has to include a quartet of forces: three surface tensions (surface free ...

Motion of a contact line

The Physics of Fluids, 1982
A multiscale expansion approach is applied to the solution of the free-boundary Stokes’ problem describing flow in the vicinity of a moving contact line. A solution free of singularities is obtained for the case of a liquid advancing into an inviscid medium.

The elasticity of a contact line

Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 1999
Abstract We calculate the work required to deform a three-phase contact line between two fluid phases and one solid phase using an interface displacement model. This includes the effects of both surface and line tensions. The leading-order dependence on the wavenumber q of the distortion has been described by Joanny and de Gennes (J. Chem.

Lines on contact manifolds

Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik (Crelles Journal), 2001
Complex manifolds \(X\) which carry a complex contact structure, i.e., a non-degenerate subbundle \(F\subset T_X\) of the tangent bundle of corank one, appear naturally as twistor spaces over Riemannian manifolds with quaternionic-Kählerian holonomy group. These manifolds have recently gained considerable interest.
