Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
A droplet of nonwetting viscous liquid moves on an inclined plane by rolling along it. We give a scaling law for the uniform speed of such a droplet. We then analyze the flow in the contact region and show that the classical stress singularity at the contact line is alleviated in this case. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics.
