Wetting: statics and dynamics
PG De Gennes - Reviews of modern physics, 1985 - APS
The wetting of solids by liquids is connected to physical chemistry (wettability), to statistical
physics (pinning of the contact line, wetting transitions, etc.), to long-range forces (van der …

Wetting and spreading
Wetting phenomena are ubiquitous in nature and technology. A solid substrate exposed to
the environment is almost invariably covered by a layer of fluid material. In this review, the …

Contact angle hysteresis
In thermodynamic equilibrium, the contact angle is related by Young's equation to the
interfacial energies. Unfortunately, it is practically impossible to measure the equilibrium …

A general boundary condition for liquid flow at solid surfaces
PA Thompson, SM Troian - nature, 1997 - nature.com
Modelling fluid flows past a surface is a general problem in science and engineering, and
requires some assumption about the nature of the fluid motion (the boundary condition) at …
