Using the mean field theory, a comparative study of the wetting and layering transitions of a spin-1/2 Ising model with perfect and corrugated surfaces, is established. The phase diagrams are investigated and compared in the presence of…
We study the solid-on-solid interface model above a horizontal wall in three dimensional space, with an attractive interaction when the interface is in contact with the wall, at low temperatures. There is no bulk external field. The system…
We study the solid-on-solid interface model above a horizontal wall in three dimensional space, with an attractive interaction when the interface is in contact with the wall, at low temperatures. The system presents a sequence of layering…
The wetting transition is studied in the McCoy-Wu Ising model in which the random bonds are perfectly correlated in the direction parallel to the walls . The model is solved numerically on finite size lattices up to $200 \times 200^2$. It…
We investigate complete wetting and drying at sinusoidally corrugated solid walls, focusing on the effects of wall geometry and interaction range. Two distinct interaction models are considered: one incorporating only short-ranged (SR)…
A simple two dimensional model of a phase growing on a substrate is introduced. The model is characterized by an adsorption rate q, and a desorption rate p. It exhibits a wetting transition which may be viewed as an unbinding transition of…
Mean field analysis of the effective interfacial Hamiltonian shows that with increasing temperature the adsorption on a periodically corrugated substrate can proceed in two steps: first, there is the filling transition in which the…
In this two-part study we investigate the phase behaviour of a fluid spatially confined in a semi-infinite rectangular pore formed by three orthogonal walls and connected to a reservoir maintaining constant values of pressure and…
The instantaneous two-dimensional wall shear rate is assessed through an inverse problem using mass transfer data from a three-segment electrodiffusion probe. The method is validated numerically in complex flow conditions involving (i) high…
We prove existence of a wetting transition for two types of gradient fields: 1) Continuous SOS models in any dimension and 2) Massless Gaussian model in two dimensions. Combined with a recent result showing the absence of such a transition…
Although realizing wetting transitions of droplets spontaneously on solid rough surfaces is quite challenging, it is becoming a key research topic in many practical applications which require highly efficient removal of liquid. We report…
A $2D$ model describing depinning of an interface from a rough, self-affine substrate, is studied by transfer matrix methods. The phase diagram is determined for several values of the roughness exponent, $\zeta_S$, of the attractive wall.…
We consider fluid wetting on a corrugated substrate using effective interfacial Hamiltonian theory and show that breaking the translational invariance along the wall can induce an 'unbending' phase transition in addition to unbinding. Both…
We consider an effective Hamiltonian description of critical wetting transitions in systems with short-range forces at a corrugated (periodic) wall. We are able to recover the results obtained previously from a `microscopic'…
We study a $d=2$ discrete solid--on--solid model of complete wetting of a rough substrate with random self--affine boundary, having roughness exponent $\zeta_s$. A suitable transfer matrix approach allows to discuss adsorption isotherms, as…
The wetting of a charged wedge-like wall by an electrolyte solution is investigated by means of classical density functional theory. As in other studies on wedge wetting, this geometry is considered as the most simple deviation from a…
The properties of the coexisting bulk gas and liquid phases of a polydisperse fluid depend not only on the prevailing temperature, but also on the overall parent density. As a result, a polydisperse fluid near a wall will exhibit…
We study complete wetting of solid walls that are patterned by parallel nanogrooves of depth $D$ and width $L$ with a periodicity of $2L$. The wall is formed of a material which interacts with the fluid via a long-range potential and…
The wetting and filling properties of a fluid adsorbed on a solid grooved substrate are studied by means of a microscopic density functional theory. The grooved substrates are modelled using a solid slab, interacting with the fluid…
We consider the problem of the Winterbottom's construction and Young's equation in the presence of a rough substate and establish their microscopic validity within a 1+1-dimensional SOS type model. We then present the low temperature…
