The influence of contact line velocity and acceleration on the dynamic contact angle: An experimental study in microgravity [PDF]
In this study, a novel experimental method by using the short-time microgravity condition created by the drop tower facility is proposed to investigate the dependence of dynamic contact angle on both the velocity and acceleration of contact line.

Volume and Frequency-Independent Spreading of Droplets Driven by Ultrasonic Surface Vibration
Many industrial processes depend on the wetting of liquids on various surfaces. Understanding the wetting effects due to ultrasonic vibration could provide a means for changing the behavior of liquids on any surface.

Numerical approximations for a phase-field moving contact line model with variable densities and viscosities [PDF]
We consider the numerical approximations of a two-phase hydrodynamics coupled phase-field model that incorporates the variable densities, viscosities and moving contact line boundary conditions.

Dissipation in dynamics of a moving contact line [PDF]
The dynamics of the deformations of a moving contact line is studied assuming two different dissipation mechanisms. It is shown that the characteristic relaxation time for a deformation of wavelength $2π/|k|$ of a contact line moving with velocity $v$ is given as $τ^{-1}(k)=c(v) |k|$.

Catenoid Stability with a Free Contact Line [PDF]
Contact-drop dispensing is central to many small-scale applications, such as direct-scanning probe lithography and micromachined fountain-pen techniques. Accurate and controllable dispensing required for nanometer-resolved surface patterning hinges on the stability and breakup of liquid bridges.

The role of the microscale contact line dynamics in the wetting behaviour of complex fluids
The microscale morphology of the liquid-substrate contact line is studied experimentally in two well-known examples of dynamic wetting with complex fluids (namely, drop impact of dilute polymer solutions and spreading of superspreader surfactant ...

Transition in a numerical model of contact line dynamics and forced dewetting [PDF]
We investigate the transition to a Landau–Levich–Derjaguin film in forced dewetting using a quadtree adaptive solution to the Navier–Stokes equations with surface tension.

On the Moving Contact Line Singularity [PDF]
Given that contact line between liquid and solid phases can move regardless how negligibly small are the surface roughness, Navier slip, liquid volatility, impurities, deviations from the Newtonian behavior, and other system- dependent parameters, the problem is treated here from the pure hydrodynamical point of view only.

A miniature non-circular line gear with pure-rolling contact
The design of pure-rolling gear has always been a subject of intense research, because in some working conditions, such as dry friction, pure-rolling gear has higher transmission efficiency and less possibility of transmission failure. Non-circular gears
