High-speed printing processes are a leading technology for the large-scale manufacture of a
new generation of nanoscale and microscale devices. Central to all printing processes is the …

On-demand droplet transportation is of great significance for numerous applications.
Although various strategies have been developed for droplet transportation, out-of-surface …

In this article, we present a modelling approach for rapid dynamic wetting based on the
phase field theory. We show that in order to model this accurately, it is important to allow for …

The complex behaviour of drop deposition on a hydrophobic surface is considered by
looking at a model problem in which the evolution of a constant-volume liquid bridge is …

This paper presents both experimental and numerical simulations of liquid transfer between
two solid surfaces with contact angle hysteresis (CAH). Systematic studies on the role of the …

Liquid bridges with moving contact lines are found in a variety of settings such as capillary
feeders and high-speed printing. Although it is often assumed that the length scale for these …

Liquid bridges with moving contact lines are relevant in a variety of natural and industrial
settings, ranging from printing processes to the feeding of birds. While it is often assumed …

Hypothesis A liquid droplet is apt to be deformed within a compact space in various
applications. The morphological change of a droplet and vapor accumulation in the confined …

The transfer ratio of quasi-static liquid transfer was found to strongly depend on the
difference between the receding contact angles of the two surfaces. In contrast to traditional …
