Toward a description of contact line motion at higher capillary numbers
Jens Eggers
The surface of a liquid near a moving contact line is highly curved owing to diverging viscous forces. Thus, microscopic physics must be invoked at the contact line and matched to…

Comment on "Dynamic Wetting by liquids of different viscosity", by T.D. Blake and Y.D. Shikhmurzaev
Jens Eggers, Robert Evans
We comment on a recent theory of dynamic wetting, that is based directly upon a model for interface formation, introduced by Shikhmurzaev. We argue that the treatment of surface te…

Hydrodynamic theory of de-wetting
Jens Eggers
A prototypical problem in the study of wetting phenomena is that of a solid plunging into or being withdrawn from a liquid bath. In the latter, de-wetting case, a critical speed ex…
