Spontaneous imbibition in a slit pore: a lattice-gas dynamic mean field study [PDF]
, 2010 We present a theoretical study of spontaneous imbibition in a slit pore using a lattice-gas model and a dynamic mean-field theory. Emphasis is put on the influence of the precursor films on the speed of the imbibition front due to liquid mass ...

Hydrodynamic Self-Consistent Field Theory for Inhomogeneous Polymer Melts [PDF]
, 2006 We introduce a mesoscale technique for simulating the structure and rheology of block copolymer melts and blends in hydrodynamic flows. The technique couples dynamic self consistent field theory (DSCFT) with continuum hydrodynamics and flow penalization ...

Influence of diffusion on models for non-equilibrium wetting
, 2006 It is shown that the critical properties of a recently studied model for non-equilibrium wetting are robust if one extends the dynamic rules by single-particle diffusion on terraces of the wetting layer.

Analysis of Dynamic Wetting and Dewetting on a Hydrophobic Surface Using Molecular Kinetic Theory
Tribology OnlineThe dynamic wetting and dewetting of a water droplet on a hydrophobic solid surface with an equilibrium contact angle of approximately 100° was investigated using molecular kinetic (MK) theory to model the extension–contraction experiment and numerically

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015 While the Navier boundary condition, which claims the proportionality between fluid slip velocity and wall shear stress (Qian et al., 2003, Bocquet and Barrat, 2007), was established by Thompson and Troian (1997) for a single-phase Newtonian fluid ...

The role of the microscale contact line dynamics in the wetting behaviour of complex fluids
Archives of Mechanics, 2015 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 ...

Theoretical analysis of tracer method for the measurement of wetting efficiency [PDF]
, 2007 This work investigates the tracer technique for the measurement of catalyst wetting efficiency, f, in trickle-bed reactor. The model of Ramachandran et al.

, 2021 The impact of droplets on solids or weakly-deformable surfaces can lead to non-wetting outcomes, depending on the control parameters. Here, we perform experiments and develop a simple model to understand the impact dynamics by varying three important drop parameters: the Ohnesorge number $\mathcal{O}h$, the Bond number $\mathcal{B}o$ and the Weber ...
