Wetting phenomena in nanofluidics
M Rauscher, S Dietrich - Annu. Rev. Mater. Res., 2008 - annualreviews.org
We focus on the dynamical aspects of wetting phenomena on the nanoscale for which bulk
hydrodynamic equations become invalid. At the nanoscale, phenomena that are irrelevant …

Films over topography: from cree** flow to linear stability, theory, and experiments, a review
N Aksel, M Schörner - Acta Mechanica, 2018 - Springer
The present review deals with the effects of topography and inertia on gravity-driven film
flows. The article is organized like a rope ladder, with the rungs of topography and inertia …

Interplay of fluid rheology and micro-patterning toward modulating draining characteristics on an inclined substrate
We investigate a gravity-driven thin film flow of a non-Newtonian liquid over an inclined
micro-patterned surface. We demonstrate the effect of micro-patterning on the film draining …
