Diffuse-interface models may be used to compute moving contact lines because the Cahn–
Hilliard diffusion regularizes the singularity at the contact line. This paper investigates the …

We investigate the wetting condition for diffuse-interface methods in the simulation of two-
fluid flows with moving contact lines. A current method, which uses a surface-energy …

The level-set method of Sussman et al.[J. Comput. Phys. 148 (1999) 81] is extended such
that flows with multiple moving contact lines can be simulated, accounting for inertia, a …

Within the phase-field framework, we present an accurate and robust lattice Boltzmann (LB)
method for simulating contact-line motion of immiscible binary fluids on the solid substrate …

This work presents a three-dimensional finite-element algorithm, based on the phase-field
model, for computing interfacial flows of Newtonian and complex fluids. A 3D adaptive …

Advances in pore-scale imaging (eg, μ-CT scanning), increasing availability of
computational resources, and recent developments in numerical algorithms have started …

The liquid-emptying process in scaled-up gravure grooves and cells is studied using flow
visualization in order to better understand gravure coating and printing processes. Water …

We studied both static and dynamic values of the apparent contact angle for gravity-driven
flow of a volatile liquid down a heated inclined plane. The apparent contact line is modeled …

The three-phase contact line is a long-standing problem in the physics and hydrodynamics
of interfaces. The traditional sharp-interface Navier-Stokes formulation encounters a non …

In this work we study the classical Landau–Levich problem of dip-coating. While in the clean
interface case and in the limit of low capillary numbers it admits an asymptotic solution, its …
