The interfacial tension of a liquid droplet surrounded by another liquid in the presence of microscopic ions is studied as a function of the droplet radius. An analytical expression for the interfacial tension is obtained within a linear…
We redefine the surface tension coefficient for a nuclear Fermi-liquid drop with a finite diffuse layer. Following Gibbs-Tolman concept, we introduce the equimolar radius R_e of sharp surface droplet at which the surface tension is applied…
In this paper, using an unified approach, estimates are given of the magnitude of the surface tension of water for planar and curved interfaces in the pairwase interaction approximation based on the Lennard-Jones potential. It is shown that…
Results from Monte Carlo simulations of wall-attached droplets in the three-dimensional Ising lattice gas model and in a symmetric binary Lennard-Jones fluid, confined by antisymmetric walls, are analyzed, with the aim to estimate the…
Surface tension is a macroscopic manifestation of the cohesion of matter, and its value $\sigma_\infty$ is readily measured for a flat liquid-vapor interface. For interfaces with a small radius of curvature $R$, the surface tension might…
An exact equation for determining the Tolman length (TL) as a function of radius is obtained and a computational procedure for solving it is proposed. As a result of implementing this procedure, the dependences of the TL and surface tension…
The influence of the surface curvature on the surface tension of small droplets at equilibrium with a surrounding vapour, or small bubbles at equilibrium with a surrounding liquid, can be expanded as {\gamma}(R) = {\gamma}(planar) - .../R +…
We redefine the surface tension coefficient and the symmetry energy for an asymmetric nuclear Fermi-liquid drop with a finite diffuse layer. Considering two-component charged Fermi-liquid drop and following Gibbs-Tolman concept, we…
We evaluate how the curvature dependence of surface tension affects the shape of electrically charged interfaces between a perfectly conducting fluid and its vapour. We consider two cases: i) spherical droplets in equilibrium with their…
Test area deformations are used to analyse vapour-liquid interfaces of Lennard-Jones particles by molecular dynamics simulation. For planar vapour-liquid interfaces the change in free energy is captured by the average of the corresponding…
Application of "complete scaling" [Kim et al., Phys. Rev. E 67, 061506 (2003); Anisimov and Wang, Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 25703 (2006)] to the interfacial behavior of fluids shows that Tolman's length, a curvature correction to the surface…
We study the excess free energy due to phase coexistence of fluids by Monte Carlo simulations using successive umbrella sampling in finite LxLxL boxes with periodic boundary conditions. Both the vapor-liquid phase coexistence of a simple…
The curvature dependence of interfacial free energy, which is crucial in quantitatively predicting nucleation kinetics and the stability of bubbles and droplets, can be described in terms of the Tolman length {\delta}. For solid-liquid…
We report on the size dependence of the surface tension of a free surface of an isotropic fluid. The size dependence of the surface tension is evaluated based on the Gibbs-Tolman-Koenig-Buff equation for positive and negative values of…
The structural and interfacial properties of a nanoscopic liquid drops are assessed by means of mechanical, thermodynamical, and statistical mechanical approaches that are discussed in detail, including original developments at both the…
One of the long standing challenges in molecular simulation is the description of interfaces. On the molecular length scale, finite size effects significantly influence the properties of the interface such as its interfacial tension, which…
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izbGXdjvK_I for a YouTube video showing part of the results in this paper.We will consider surfaces whose mean curvature at a point is a linear function of the square of the distance from that point to the…
We study the mobility of extended objects (rods) on a spherical liquid-liquid interface to show how this quantity is modified in a striking manner by both the curvature and the topology of the interface. We present theoretical calculations…
Evaporation and condensation at a liquid/vapor interface are ubiquitous interphase mass and energy transfer phenomena that are still not well understood. We have carried out large scale molecular dynamics simulations of Lennard-Jones (LJ)…
This paper investigates the properties of a three dimensional shear flow overpassing a hemispherical droplet resting on a plane wall. The exact solution is computed as a function of the viscosity ratio between the droplet and the…
