Surface incompressibility, also called inextensibility, imposes a zero-surface-divergence constraint on the velocity of a closed deformable material surface. The well-posedness of the mechanical problem under such constraint depends on an…
At atmospheric pressure, a drop of ethanol impacting on a solid surface produces a splash. Reducing the ambient pressure below its atmospheric value suppresses this splash. The origin of this so-called pressure effect is not well understood…

In order for surface scattering models to be accurate they must necessarily satisfy energy conservation and reciprocity principles. Roughness scattering models based on Kirchoff's approximation or perturbation theory do not satisfy these…

The Young-Laplace's equation is established based on liquid membrane without shearing resistance. It is not valid for solid. By taking into account the in-plane shearing and transverse shearing within the surface layer, we reconstruct the…
In lattice models local pressure on a surface is derived from the change in the free energy of the system due to the exclusion of a certain boundary site, while the total force on the surface can be obtained by a similar exclusion of all…
