Molecular origin of contact line friction in dynamic wetting [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Fluids, 2017
A hydrophilic liquid, such as water, forms hydrogen bonds with a hydrophilic substrate. The strength and locality of the hydrogen bonding interactions prohibit slip of the liquid over the substrate.

Water Impact on Superhydrophobic Surface: One Hydrophilic Spot Morphing and Controlling Droplet Rebounce

open access: yesBiomimetics
Motion control of droplets undergoing collisions with solid surface is required in a number of technological and industrial situations. Droplet dynamics after lifting off is often unpredictable, leading to a major problem in many technologies that ...

Identification of Contact Formations: Resolving Ambiguous Force Torque Information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents the identification of contact formations using force torque information. As force torque measurements do not map uniquely to their corresponding contact formations, three steps are performed: Initially, the wrench space for each ...

Pinning-Depinning Mechanism of the Contact Line during Evaporation on Chemically Patterned Surfaces: A Lattice Boltzmann Study. [PDF]

open access: yesLangmuir, 2016
In this paper, the pinning and depinning mechanism of the contact line during droplet evaporation on chemically stripe-patterned surfaces is numerically investigated using a thermal multiphase lattice Boltzmann (LB) model with liquid-vapor phase change ...

Contact Angle Measurements of the Apparent Line Tension Are Spurious [PDF]

open access: yes
Phenomena in diverse contexts such as wetting, biological assembly, and manufacturing are attributed to the three-phase line tension. However, decades of line tension estimates based on contact angles of droplets controversially span 6 orders of ...
