First-Principles Prediction of Surface Wetting [PDF]
Langmuir, 2020 We have developed a method for predicting the solvation contribution to solid-liquid interfacial tension (IFT) based on density functional theory and the implicit solvent model COSMO-RS. Our method can be used to predict wetting behavior for a solid surface in contact with two liquids.

Wettability versus roughness of engineering surfaces [PDF]
, 2011 Wetting of real engineering surfaces occurs in many industrial applications (liquid coating, lubrication, printing, painting, ...). Forced and natural wetting can be beneficial in many cases, providing lubrication and therefore reducing friction and wear.

Probing surface wetting across multiple force, length and time scales
Communications Physics, 2023 Surface wetting is a multiscale phenomenon where properties at the macroscale are determined by features at much smaller length scales, such as nanoscale surface topographies.
