The interface displacement model previously employed for calculating the line tension near first-order and critical wetting transitions is applied to multicritical wetting transitions. For short-range forces (with exponential decay) the line tension is negative in the partial wetting regime close to

An interface displacement model is employed for calculating the line tension of a contact line where three phases meet. At a first-order wetting transition the line tension reaches a positive and finite limit if the intermolecular potentials decay faster than r 6. In contrast, for non-retarded Van d

Measurements of unsteady wetting on a rough surface were made. Spreading was initiated by electrically altering the solidliquid surface tension. The resultant time-dependent interface shape could be described by steady theory augmented with an ad hoc model which accounts for surface roughness. Flatt
