We use mesoscale simulations to study the depinning of a receding contact line on a superhydrophobic surface patterned by a regular array of posts. In order that the simulations are feasible, we introduce a novel geometry where a column of…
We report a detailed simulation and classical density functional theory study of the drying transition in a realistic model fluid at a smooth substrate. This transition (in which the contact angle $\theta\to 180^\circ$) is shown to be…
We examine the applicability of various model profiles for the liquid/vapor interface by X-ray reflectivities on water and ethanol and their mixtures at room temperature. Analysis of the X-ray reflecivities using various density profiles…
We analyze the steady non-Newtonian fluid-structure interaction between the flow of an Oldroyd-B fluid and a deformable channel. Specifically, we provide a theoretical framework for calculating the leading-order effect of the fluid's…
We report on normal contact and friction measurements of model multicontact interfaces formed between smooth surfaces and substrates textured with a statistical distribution of spherical micro-asperities. Contacts are either formed between…
Traditional laws of friction believe that the friction coefficient of two specific solids takes constant value. However, molecular simulations revealed that the friction coefficient of nanosized asperity depends strongly on contact size and…
We study the mechanical contact between a deformable body with a wavy surface and a rigid flat taking into account pressurized fluid trapped in the interface. A finite element model is formulated for a general problem of trapped fluid for…
Close to a solid surface, the properties of a fluid deviate significantly from their bulk values. In this context, we study the surface adsorption profiles of a symmetric binary liquid confined to a slit pore by means of molecular dynamics…
Adsorption of liquid on a planar wall decorated by a hydrophilic stripe of width $L$ is considered. Under the condition, that the wall is only partially wet (or dry) while the stripe tends to be wet completely, a liquid drop is formed above…
The study of wetting phenomena is of great interest due to the multifaceted technological applications of hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. The theoretical approaches proposed by Wenzel and later by Cassie and Baxter to describe the…
The effects of line tension on the morphology of a lens-shaped droplet and bubble placed on the inner wall of a spherical cavity are studied. The contact angle between the lens-shaped droplet and the concave spherical substrate is expressed…
Recent experiments have shown that the striking structure formation in dewetting films of evaporating colloidal nanoparticle suspensions occurs in an ultrathin `postcursor' layer that is left behind by a mesoscopic dewetting front. Various…
Classical density functional theory is applied to investigate the validity of a phenomenological force-balance description of the stability of the Cassie state of liquids on substrates with nanoscale corrugation. A bulk free-energy…
We study a stationary 3D/2D fluid-structure interaction problem between an elastic structure described by the linear plate equation and a fluid described by the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with hard-sphere pressure and…
By extending the theoretical framework derived in our previous study [Y. Imaizumi et al., J. Chem. Phys. 153, 034701 (2020)], we successfully calculated the solid-liquid (SL) and solid-vapor (SV) interfacial tensions of a simple…
The physics of dynamic friction on water molecule contaminated surfaces is still poorly understood. In line with the growing interest in hydrophobic contact for industrial applications, this paper focuses on friction mechanisms in such…
The contact angle of a liquid drop on a rigid surface is determined by the classical theory of Young-Laplace. For chemically homogeneous surfaces, this angle is a constant. We study the minimal-energy configurations of liquid drops on rough…
Due to the simultaneous presence of bulk-like and interfacial fluctuations the understanding of the structure of liquid-vapour interfaces poses a long-lasting and ongoing challenge for experiments, theory, and simulations. We provide a new…
Two collective properties distinguishing the thin liquid water vapour interface from the bulk liquid are the anisotropy of the pressure tensor giving rise to surface tension and the orientational alignment of the molecules leading to a…
We consider the impingement of a droplet onto a wall with high impact speed. To model this process we favour a diffuse-interface concept. Precisely, we suggest a compressible Navier--Stokes--Allen--Cahn model. Basic properties of the model…
