Beyond the Cassie-Baxter Model: New Insights for Predicting Imbibition in Complex Systems
Mathis Fricke, Lisanne Gossel, Joel De Coninck
We revisit the classical problem of liquid imbibition in a single pore with spatially varying wettability. Starting from the Lucas-Washburn equation, we derive analytical solutions…
Bridging the scales in capillary rise dynamics with complexity-reduced models
Mathis Fricke, Suraj Raju, El Assad Ouro-Koura +5
Dynamic wetting processes inherently manifest as multiscale phenomena. While the capillary length is typically millimeters, solid-liquid interactions occur at the nanometer scale.…
Metastable wetting
Joel De Coninck, François Dunlop, Thierry Huillet
Consider a droplet of liquid on top of a grooved substrate. The wetting or not of a groove implies the crossing of a potential barrier as the interface has to distort, to hit the b…
Droplet Spreading: Partial Wetting Regime Revisited
M. J. de Ruijter, J. De Coninck, G. Oshanin
We study the time evolution of a sessile liquid droplet, which is initially put onto a solid surface in a non-equilibrium configuration and then evolves towards its equilibrium sha…
