The same approach used by Boender, Chesters, and van der Zanden in the context of an advancing liquid-gas meniscus in a capillary tube is extended to the case of spontaneous spreading of a droplet on an ideal solid surface. The result is an ordinary differential equation for the droplet profile whic
The spontaneous spreading of small liquid droplets on solid surfaces is examined with the objective of developing closed-form expressions for the spreading dynamics, both for the case in which there is complete equilibrium spreading, that is the equilibrium contact angle is Oo, and for the case in w
