Tribology of thin wetting films between a bubble and a moving solid surface
S. I. Karakashev, K. W. Stoeckelhuber, R. Tsekov +2
The tribology of a bubble rubbing on a solid surface is studied via interferometry. A unique experimental setup is designed for monitoring the thickness profiles of a wetting film,…

Wetting dynamics on lyophilic solid surfaces patterned by lyophobic islands
R. Tsekov, D. Borissov, S. I. Karakashev
A theory for wetting of structured solid surfaces is developed, based on the delta-comb periodic potential. It possesses two matching parameters: the effective line tension and the…

Effect of the adsorption component of the disjoining pressure on foam film drainage
S. I. Karakashev, A. V. Nguyen, R. Tsekov
The present work is trying to explain a discrepancy between experimental observations of the drainage of foam films from aqueous solutions of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and the t…
