Computational methods have been extended recently to allow for the presence of moving
contact lines in simulated two-phase flows. The predictive capability offered by these …

Scaling (power-type) laws reveal the fundamental property of the phenomena--self similarity.
Self-similar (scaling) phenomena repeat themselves in time and/or space. The property of …

Joining of different materials is a situation frequently observed in mechanical engineering
and in materials science. Due to the difference in the elastic properties of the constituent …

We revisit the Saffman-Taylor experiment focusing on the forced-imbibition regime where
the displacing fluid wets the confining walls. We demonstrate a new class of invasion …

The isothermal dissolutive wetting behavior of various Bi–Sn alloys on pure Bi substrates
was studied at 250° C using the sessile drop technique. Wetted radius and apparent …

Odd viscosity is associated with a number of striking physical phenomena: a disk rotating in
a viscous liquid experiences a normal compressive or tensile stress depending on its sense …

The local temperature solution near the triple-phase line of a solidifying front, its melt, and a
surrounding inert phase was obtained analytically including all three phases and …

We consider steady two-dimensional fluid flow and heat transfer near contact lines in single-
phase and two-phase systems. Both single-and double-wedge geometries admit separable …

The isothermal spreading of liquid Sn on Au substrates was studied over the temperature
range of 250–430° C using the sessile drop technique in a gaseous flux atmosphere. Digital …

When a viscous liquid bridge between two parallel substrates is stretched by accelerating
one substrate, its interface on the plates recedes in the radial direction. In some cases the …
