Description:
Author(s): Axel Huerre, Olivier Theodoly, Alexander M. Leshansky, Marie-Pierre Valignat, Isabelle Cantat, and Marie-Caroline Jullien We study the motion of droplets in a confined, micrometric geometry, by focusing on the lubrication film between a droplet and a wall. When capillary forces dominate, the lubrication film thickness evolves nonlinearly with the capillary number due to the viscous dissipation between the meniscus and … [Phys. Rev.
