Modelling spreading dynamics of liquid crystals in three spatial dimensions
Te-Sheng Lin, Lou Kondic, Uwe Thiele +1
We study spreading dynamics of nematic liquid crystal droplets within the framework of the long-wave approximation. A fourth order nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation…
Dynamical model for the formation of patterned deposits at receding contact lines
Lubor Frastia, Andrew J. Archer, Uwe Thiele
We describe the formation of deposition patterns that are observed in many different experiments where a three-phase contact line of a volatile nanoparticle suspension or polymer s…
Modelling approaches to the dewetting of evaporating thin films of nanoparticle suspensions
U. Thiele, I. Vancea, A. J. Archer +7
We review recent experiments on dewetting thin films of evaporating colloidal nanoparticle suspensions (nanofluids) and discuss several theoretical approaches to describe the ongoi…
Dynamical density functional theory for the dewetting of evaporating thin films of nanoparticle suspensions exhibiting pattern formation
A. J. Archer, M. J. Robbins, U. Thiele
Recent experiments have shown that the striking structure formation in dewetting films of evaporating colloidal nanoparticle suspensions occurs in an ultrathin `postcursor' layer t…
Self-propelled running droplets on solid substrates driven by chemical reactions
K. John, M. Baer, U. Thiele
We study chemically driven running droplets on a partially wetting solid substrate by means of coupled evolution equations for the thickness profile of the droplets and the density…
