The sharp-interface limits of a phase-field model with a generalized Navier slip boundary
condition for binary fluids with moving contact lines are studied by asymptotic analysis and …

We study the utility and validity of lattice-Boltzmann (LB) simulations to explore droplet
evaporation driven by a concentration gradient. Using a binary-fluid lattice-Boltzmann …

Droplet impact on solid surfaces is a fluid phenomenon widely involved in additive
manufacturing, heat management, and coating, in which the ability to exert control over the …

Wetting is a prerequisite for coating a uniform layer of liquid onto a solid. Wetting failure and
air entrainment set the ultimate limit to coating speed. It is well known in the coating art that …

The motion of a contact line is examined, and comparisons drawn, for a variety of models
proposed in the literature. Pressure and stress behaviours at the contact line are examined …

In this paper, we propose a hybrid model to compute the capillary force acting on moving
solid objects, and combine it with the diffuse-interface immersed-boundary method in Liu …

We propose finite-volume schemes for the Cahn-Hilliard equation which unconditionally and
discretely preserve the boundedness of the phase field and the dissipation of the free …

Understanding the nanoscale effects controlling the dynamics of a contact line—defined as
the line formed at the junction of two fluid phases and a solid—has been a longstanding …

Abstract The Navier-Stokes-Korteweg (NSK) system is a classical diffuse interface model
which is based on van der Waals' theory of capillarity. Diffuse interface methods have …

For contact line motion where the full Stokes flow equations hold, full matched asymptotic
solutions using slip models have been obtained for droplet spreading and more general …
