Interface-dominated sliding compound drops
Dominik Thy, Jan Diekmann, Uwe Thiele
We investigate compound drops composed of two immiscible nonvolatile partially wetting liquids that slide down an inclined homogeneous smooth solid substrate based on a mesoscopic…
Mesoscopic hydrodynamic model for spreading, sliding and coarsening compound drops
Jan Diekmann, Uwe Thiele
We revisit the mesoscopic hydrodynamic description of the dynamics of sessile partially wetting compound drops, i.e., of drops that consist of two immiscible nonvolatile partially…
Drops of volatile binary mixtures on brush-covered substrates
Jan Diekmann, Uwe Thiele
We introduce a mesoscopic hydrodynamic model for drops of binary mixtures of volatile partially wetting liquids on brush-covered substrates, i.e., we model the coupled dynamics of…
Drops on polymer brushes -- advances in thin-film modelling of adaptive substrates
Simon Hartmann, Jan Diekmann, Daniel Greve +1
We briefly review recent advances in the hydrodynamic modeling of the dynamics of droplets on adaptive substrates, in particular, solids that are covered by polymer brushes. Thereb…
