The motion of a gas-liquid interface along a solid wall is influenced by the capillary forces resulting from the interface's shape and its interaction with the solid, where it forms a dynamic contact angle. Capillary models play a…
Ions in ionic liquids and concentrated electrolytes reside in a crowded, strongly-interacting environment, leading to the formation of discrete layers of charges at interfaces. Here, we propose a continuum theory that captures the…
Experimental measurements of interactions in ionic liquids and concentrated electrolytes over the past decade or so have revealed simultaneous monotonic and oscillatory decay modes. These observations have been hard to interpret using…
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…
We investigated the effect of surfactants on an interface between two kinds of liquid by molecular dynamics simulation. We adopted the simple bead-spring model with two atoms as the surfactants. We controlled the interfacial tension of the…
The surface tension of monolayers with mixtures of anionic and nonionic surfactant at the liquid/vapour interface is studied. Previous works have observed that calculations of the surface tension of simple fluids show artificial…
Interfaces in phase-separated driven liquids are one example of how energy input at the single-particle level changes the long-length-scale material properties of nonequilibrium systems. Here, we measure interfacial fluctuations in…
It is theoretically shown that the excess liquid-liquid interfacial tension between two electrolyte solutions as a function of the ionic strength I behaves asymptotically as O(- I^0.5) for small I and as O(+- I) for large I. The former…
Many microfluidics devices, coating processes or diphasic flows involve the motion of a liquid meniscus on a wet wall. This motion induces a specific viscous force, that exhibits a non-linear dependency in the meniscus velocity. We propose…
The formation of liquid bridges between a planar and conical substrates is analyzed macroscopically taking into account the line tension. Depending on the value of the line tension coefficient \tau and geometric parameters of the system one…
The contact line dynamics of a thermal field assisted flow configuration of two immiscible fluids is considered in a narrow thermofluidic pathway. The surfaces of the channel are wetted with predesigned wettabilities and interdigitated…
A theoretical study is presented of surface waves at a monomolecular surfactant film between an isotropic liquid and a nematic liquid crystal for the case when the surfactant film is in the isotropic two-dimensional fluid phase and induces…
We study the fluid squeeze-out from the interface between an elastic solid with a flat surface and a rigid solid with a randomly rough surface. As an application we discuss fluid squeeze-out between a tire tread block and a road surface.…
Shapes of colloids matter at liquid interfaces. We explore the interactions between rough-surfaced nanocolloids at the air--water interface through the compaction of monolayers experimentally and numerically. Sufficiently rough systems…
The density functional approach is used to study the gas-to-liquid and liquid-to-gas nucleation phenomena in a fluid of two-level atoms in an external electrical field. The influence of the field on the surface tension and nucleation and…
The development of microfluidic devices has recently revived the interest in "old" problems associated with transport at, or across, interfaces. As the characteristic sizes are decreased, the use of pressure gradients to transport fluids…
Control of fluid dynamics at the micrometer scale is essential to emulsion science and materials design, which is ubiquitous in everyday life and is frequently encountered in industrial applications. Most studies on multiphase flow focus on…
Thin liquid films on surfaces are part of our everyday life, they serve e.g. as coatings or lubricants. The stability of a thin layer is governed by interfacial forces, described by the effective interface potential, and has been subject of…
In this paper, the effects of interfacial tension between the sediment solid particle and liquid on the settlement of sediment flocs are investigated. After a discussion of mechanical and physical chemistry, we give a settling velocity…
Interfaces involving coexisting phases in condensed matter are essential in various examples of soft matter phenomena such as wetting, nucleation, morphology, phase separation kinetics, membranes, phase coexistence in nanomaterials, etc.…
