Hydrodynamic density-functional theory for the moving contact-line problem reveals fluid structure and emergence of a spatially distinct pattern
Andreas Nold, Benjamin D. Goddard, David N. Sibley +1
Understanding the nanoscale effects controlling the dynamics of a contact line -- defined as the line formed at the junction of two fluid phases and a solid -- has been a longstand…
Nanoscale fluid structure of liquid-solid-vapour contact lines for a wide range of contact angles
Andreas Nold, David N. Sibley, Benjamin D. Goddard +1
We study the nanoscale behaviour of the density of a simple fluid in the vicinity of an equilibrium contact line for a wide range of Young contact angles between 40 and 135 degrees…
Fluid structure in the immediate vicinity of an equilibrium three-phase contact line and assessment of disjoining pressure models using density functional theory
Andreas Nold, David N. Sibley, Benjamin D. Goddard +1
We examine the nanoscale behavior of an equilibrium three-phase contact line in the presence of long-ranged intermolecular forces by employing a statistical mechanics of fluids app…
Symmetry Analysis in Linear Hydrodynamic Stability Theory: Classical and New Modes in Linear Shear
Andreas Nold, Martin Oberlack
We present a symmetry classification of the linearised Navier-Stokes equations for a two-dimensional unbounded linear shear flow of an incompressible fluid. The full set of symmetr…
The contact line behaviour of solid-liquid-gas diffuse-interface models
David N. Sibley, Andreas Nold, Nikos Savva +1
A solid-liquid-gas moving contact line is considered through a diffuse-interface model with the classical boundary condition of no-slip at the solid surface. Examination of the asy…
A comparison of slip, disjoining pressure, and interface formation models for contact line motion through asymptotic analysis of thin two-dimensional droplet spreading
David N. Sibley, Andreas Nold, Nikos Savva +1
The motion of a contact line is examined, and comparisons drawn, for a variety of models proposed in the literature. Pressure and stress behaviours at the contact line are examined…
On the moving contact line singularity: Asymptotics of a diffuse-interface model
David N. Sibley, Andreas Nold, Nikos Savva +1
The behaviour of a solid-liquid-gas system near the three-phase contact line is considered using a diffuse-interface model with no-slip at the solid and where the fluid phase is sp…
