## Abstract The relationship between the contact angles, surface tension, and surface roughness is reviewed. Numerical formulas related to the superhydrophobic rough surfaces of polymers are predicted with two approaches, the Wenzel and CassieβBaxter models. With these models as a guide, an artific
## Abstract A theoretical study was conducted to investigate the wetting behavior of liquid meniscus on a vertical plate with threeβdimensional random characteristics of heterogeneity and roughness. The thermodynamic stable condition was derived by considering the minimum of system free energy. The
