A droplet deposited on a solid substrate leads to the wetting phenomenon. A natural
observation is the lotus effect, known for its superhydrophobicity. This special feature is …

A comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of droplets undergoing collisions with solid
surfaces is required in a number of technological and industrial situations. Recently, a new …

The instability and dewetting of bounded liquid films at the nanoscale are shown to strongly
depend on thermal fluctuations. In this work, this fluctuation-driven instability of films on a …

Coating liquid films on cylinders occurs widely in nature, material sciences, and industrial
processes. A typical example is the fabrication of thin solid films, which could be achieved by …

This paper studies the oblique impact of droplets on microstructured superhydrophobic
surfaces with the lattice Boltzmann method. Three-dimensional simulations are performed …

Fluid films spreading on hydrophobic solid surfaces exhibit complicated dynamics that
describe transitions leading the films to break up into droplets. For viscous fluids coating …

The stability of convective flows in a non-homogeneous temperature field is affected by the
shape of the container hosting the fluid. We present a nonlinear two-phase computational …

Nowadays, prefilming atomizers have been widely applied in aero-engine, industrial fields,
and agricultural irrigation. In this study, atomization characteristics of the prefilming …

Previous front-tracking (FT) method-based models to simulate droplet motion on a solid
surface with a moving contact line (MCL) are limited to two-dimensional models in which the …

Germanane (GeH), a graphane analogue, has attracted significant interest because of its
optoelectronic properties; however, the environmental and biological effects of GeH have …
