The mechamsm of spreadmg of a drop on a smooth sohd surface IS dscussed and the role of surface vlscoslty m the dynamics of the process stressed The wettmg force produces a velocity gradlent along the free interface via the surface vlscoslty This motion IS transferred via the bulk vlscoslty to the bulk hquld A possible mterpretatlon of the sohd-gas surface tenslon actmg at the border of the drop IS also gven

NOTE A Model for Detachment of a Partially Wetting Drop from a Solid Surface by Shear Flow drop detachment is the ability of a liquid drop to deform while it remains attached to a solid substrate under the influence of an external force. In the Liquid drop detachment from a solid surface by simple s
The entrainment of air by a horizontal cylindrical roll rotating in a bath of liquid is considered. A simplified approach based on dimensionless analysis suggests that entrainment should occur at a critical value of the dimensionless capillary number, pU/u. Experiments on a range of viscous glycerol
