Abstract: Slow droplet motion on chemically heterogeneous substrates is considered analytically and numerically. We adopt the long-wave approximation which yields a single partial differential equation for the droplet height in time and space. A matched asymptotic… read more here.

Abstract: This study presents droplet dynamics due to capillarity-wettability interaction through a partially obstructed channel confinement based on a mesoscopic, two-phase lattice Boltzmann model. To explore the dynamic behavior of droplet motion past an obstruction, the… read more here.
