Modeling the Dynamics of Partial Wetting Using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (Sph)

by Manuel Konrad Huber

The scientific description of wetting phenomena is a challenging problem on every considerable length-scale. Intermolecular interactions like the Van der Waals forces may act as driving force and give rise to interface and contact line dynamics. In this way appropriate physical models must be developed in order to describe surface tension phenomena on the continuum scale. In this thesis a new approach based on a balance equation for the contact line...
