چکیده
An exact solution of a two dimensional RSOS model of wetting at a corrugated (periodic) wall is found using transfer matrix techniques. In contrast to mean-field analysis of the same problem the wetting transition remains second-order and occurs at a lower temperature than that of the planar system. Comparison with numerical studies and other analytical approaches is made.

An exact solution for two-dimensional wetting with a corrugated wall
An exact solution of a two-dimensional RSOS model of wetting at a corrugated (periodic) wall is found using transfer matrix techniques. In contrast to mean-field analysis of the same problem, the wetting transition remains second order and occurs at a lower temperature than that of the planar system. A comparison with numerical studies and other analytical approaches is made.

We consider the problem of the Winterbottom’s construction and Young’s equation in the presence of a rough substate and establish their microscopic validity within a 1 + 1–dimensional SOS type model. We then present the low temperature expansion of the wall tension leading to the Wenzel’s law for the wall tension and its corrections. Finally, for a fix roughness, we compare the influence of dif...
متن کاملNumerical solution of the one dimensional non-linear Burgers equation using the Adomian decomposition method and the comparison between the modified Local Crank-Nicolson method and the VIM exact solution
The Burgers’ equation is a simplified form of the Navier-Stokes equations that very well represents their non-linear features. In this paper, numerical methods of the Adomian decomposition and the Modified Crank – Nicholson, used for solving the one-dimensional Burgers’ equation, have been compared. These numerical methods have also been compared with the analytical method. In contrast to...
متن کاملInvestigation of flow and heat transfer of nanofluid in a diverging sinusoidal channel
Using of nanofluids and ducts with corrugated walls are both supposed to enhance heat transfer, by increasing the heat transfer fluid conductivity and the heat transfer area respectively. Use of a diverging duct with a jet at inlet section may further increase heat transfer by creating recirculation zones inside the duct. In this work two-dimensional incompressible laminar flow of a nanofluid e...

We consider the two-dimensional one-component plasma without a background and confined to a half plane near a metal wall. The particles are also subjected to an external potential acting perpendicular to the wall with an inverse power law Boltzmann factor. The model has a known solvable isotherm which exhibits a Kosterlitz-Thouless type transition from a conductive to an insulator phase as the ...
