Stability of liquid ridges on chemical micro- and nanostripes
S. Mechkov, M. Rauscher, S. Dietrich
We analyze the stability of sessile filaments (ridges) of nonvolatile liquids versus pearling in the case of externally driven flow along a chemical stripe within the framework of…
Magnetization and susceptibility of ferrofluids
I. Szalai, S. Dietrich
A second-order Taylor series expansion of the free energy functional provides analytical expressions for the magnetic field dependence of the free energy and of the magnetization o…
Complete Wetting of Pits and Grooves
M. Tasinkevych, S. Dietrich
For one-component volatile fluids governed by dispersion forces an effective interface Hamiltonian, derived from a microscopic density functional theory, is used to study complete…
Absence of logarithmic attraction between colloids trapped at the interface of droplets
Alvaro Dominguez, Martin Oettel, Siegfried Dietrich
We pinpoint and correct several mathematical errors in EPL 75(2006)978. As a consequence, we conclude that there is no logarithmically varying interfacial deformation, contrary to…
Pearling instability of nanoscale fluid flow confined to a chemical channel
J. Koplik, T. S. Lo, M. Rauscher +1
We investigate the flow of a nano-scale incompressible ridge of low-volatility liquid along a "chemical channel": a long, straight, and completely wetting stripe embedded in a plan…
Critical dynamics in thin films
A. Gambassi, S. Dietrich
Critical dynamics in film geometry is analyzed within the field-theoretical approach. In particular we consider the case of purely relaxational dynamics (Model A) and Dirichlet bou…
