A description of the entire configuration of liquid drops spreading over a previously wetted solid surface is given in the case of negligible evaporation and small Bond and Weber numbers. Two solutions are developed: an outer one which is valid in the bulk of the drop and an inner solution which app
There have been many experiments that have determined the wetting behavior of liquids on low-energy solid surfaces. These experiments show that, in general, the contact angle, theta, measured through the liquid, increases with increasing liquid-vapor surface tension, sigmalv. Surprisingly, in experi
A numerical method is used to simulate the motion of inviscid drops colliding and coalescing at a solid surface. The equations of motion are solved by a boundary element method in which the free surface of the drop is represented by a moving grid. The numerical results include the configuration of t

The exchange kinetics of polymers adsorbing on a solid surface is extensively studied by dynamic Monte Carlo simulations. A model employed simulates a semidilute polymer solution placed in contact with a solid surface that attracts polymer segments by the adsorption interaction (v s ). The exchange
