Lattice-Boltzmann simulations of electrowetting phenomena
Élfego Ruiz-Gutiérrez, Rodrigo Ledesma-Aguilar
We present a lattice-Boltzmann method that can simulate the coupled hydrodynamics and electrostatics equations of motion of a two-phase fluid as a means to model electrowetting phe…

Energy invariance in capillary systems
Elfego Ruiz-Gutiérrez, James Jian Guan, Ben Xu +3
We demonstrate the continuous translational invariance of the energy of a capillary surface in contact with reconfigurable solid boundaries. We present a theoretical approach to fi…

Statics and dynamics of liquid barrels in wedge geometries
Élfego Ruiz-Gutiérrez, Ciro Semprebon, Glen McHale +1
We present a theoretical study of the statics and dynamics of a partially wetting liquid droplet, of equilibrium contact angle , confined in a solid wedge geometry of op…
