In their work, the pinning force and the depinning force were formulated.
The depinning and pinning sequence is repeated until the above rib volume is totally vanished and liquid remains only in between the ribs.
According to their opinion, the depinning of the contact line on rough surfaces occurs when the intrinsic energy barrier due to surface roughness can be overcome.
DEPINNING THE TERMINALS one terminal location and a modified small paper clip inserted into another. To depin the connector terminals apply pressure from the backside on the wire to be …
We reveal a hitherto unknown self-similar depinning mechanism that shows how some hierarchical textures such as lotus leaves lead to reduced pinning, and counter-intuitively, how some lead to …
We have developed a lubrication-theory-based model to study the pinning-depinning transition of circular droplets on an inclined substrate with a three-dimensional topographical defect.
It is known that contact line depinning occurs when the shearing gas flow is large enough to deform the droplet beyond its contact angle hysteresis. This work explores the contact line depinning process by …
