Abstract:

The contact angle, as a vital measured parameter of wettability of material surface, has long been in dispute whether it is affected by gravity. Herein, we measured the advancing and receding contact angles on extremely low contact angle hysteresis surfaces under different gravities (1-8G) and found that both of them decrease with the increase of the gravity. The underlying mechanism is revealed to be the contact angle hysteresis and the deformation of the liquid-vapor interface away from the solid surface caused by gradient distribution of the hydrostatic pressure. The real contact angle is n

Abstract:

The contact angles formed at the position of each ball in ball screws are conventionally assumed to be a constant value in determination of contact stiffness. In this study, instead of being treated as pre-assumed constants, the contact angle is formulated as functions of the position angle of balls to reﬂect their distribution dependent on the operation condition and design parameters. After establishing a proper transformed coordinate system according to the ball screw mechanism, the variable contact angles and normal forces of the ball screw are predicted. Then the contact stiffness obtaine

In reported experiments, a steel indenter was pressed into a soft elastomer layer under varying inclination angles and subsequently was detached under various inclination angles too.

Based on experimental results, a simple theoretical model of the indentation process is proposed, in whi

AbstractThis work builds on the foundation laid by Benney & Timson (Stud. Appl.

Their local analysis, however, does not allow one to determine the velocity of the contact line and their expression for the shape of the free boundary involves undetermined constants. The present paper considers two-dimensional Couette flows with a free boundary, for which the local analysis of Benney & Timson can be compl

Abstract:

The impact of tilted angles on contact angles of water droplets in digital microfluidics was investigated. Experiments were conducted tilting the chip from 0 to 10 degrees at voltage increments of 50V from 250V to 400V DC. Both advancing and receding contact angles of the water droplets were measured at each angle and voltage combination. As the tilted angle increased from horizontal to 10 degrees, the advancing contact angle generally decreased whereas the receding contact angle increased. This trend held for all tested voltages. The changes were more pronounced at higher tilt angles above 5

Here, a simple method was presented for fabricating superhydrophobic silicon surfaces. Square-pillar-array samples were fabricated on silicon substrates by using the femtosecond laser micromachining technology. We measured the static and dynamic contact angles for water on these surfaces. The contact angles and the rolling angles on the silicon surfaces were measured through an optical contact angle meter. Wettability studies revealed the films exhibited a superhydrophobic behaviour with a higher contact angle and lower rolling angle-a water droplet moved easily on the surface.

Abstract:

The most influential parameter on the behavior of two-component flow in porous media is “wettability”. When wettability is being characterized, the most frequently used parameter is the “contact angle”. When a fluid-drop is placed on a solid surface, in the presence of a second, surrounding fluid, the fluid-fluid surface contacts the solid-surface at an angle that is typically measured through the fluid-drop. If this angle is less than 90°, the fluid in the drop is said to “wet” the surface. If this angle is greater than 90°, the surrounding fluid is said to “wet” the surface. This definition

This paper focuses on effects of roughness on wettability. According to Wenzel's equation, the transition of theoretical wetting contact angles is 90°, whereas many experimental results have indicated that such a transition takes place at contact angles smaller than 90°. A new model of wetting on roughness surface is established in this paper. The model indicates that the influencing factors of wetting on roughness surface include not only equilibrium contact angle θ0 and surface roughness, but also the system of liquids and solid substrates.

Abstract:

In contact angle measurements, direct identification of the contact angles from images taken from a goniometer suffers from errors caused by optical scatterings. Contact angles can be more accurately identified by the height and width of the droplet. Spherical dome is a simple model used to correlate the contact angles to the droplet shape; however, it features intrinsic errors caused by gravity-induced shape deformation. This paper demonstrates a simple method of obtaining an empirical formula, determined from experiments, to correct the gravity-induced error in the spherical dome model for c

As expected, contact angle values on transverse sections were higher than those on tangential sections for both sanded and non-sanded surfaces. On sanded surfaces, hackberry had the highest mean contact angle (64.7°), and black oak had the lowest mean contact angle (50.1°). On non-sanded surfaces, winged elm had the highest mean contact angle (59.1°), and sweetgum had the lowest mean contact angle (45.9°).

Abstract:

The contact angle of a ball in a ball bearing is conventionally assumed to be a constant value in the mechanism analysis; in reality, this is not true. This assumption is made for the purpose of simplifying calculations, but the real elastic deformation produced at the position of each ball due to the acting force varying with the contact angle is unable to be considered. This study tries to establish a simple, three-dimensional expression for the elastic deformation at different position angles in terms of the geometry of the contact surface at the inner and outer races. Simply using the Newt

Abstract:

Superhydrophobic materials have been extensively studied because of their wonderful array of properties and applications. In this study, normal and superhydrophobic surface of silk fabric have been prepared via deposition of different shapes of PTFE nanostructure using magnetron sputter coating. The effects of PTFE sputter coating on surface morphology and surface chemical properties were characterized using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and ATR-FTIR (attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy). The wettability of the fabric was characterized through measuring the surf

Abstract:

The microstructures on elytral surface of aquatic beetles belonging to Hydrophilidae and Dytiscidae were observed under an environment scanning microscope, and the wettabilities were determined with an optical contact angle meter. The results show the elytral surfaces are relatively smooth compared to the structures of other insects such as the butterfly wing scales or cicada wing protrusions. They exhibit a polygonal structuring with grooves and pores being the main constituent units. The contact angles (CAs) range from 47.1oto 82.1o. The advancing and receding angles were measured by injecti
