Asymmetric Sessile Compound Drops — •Jan Diekmann and Uwe Thiele — Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität, Münster, Germany
We consider compound drops of two immiscible liquids on a rigid solid substrate. Having established a mesoscopic model (amending [1]) consistent with the macroscopic description of [2,3], we show for one-dimensional (1D) substrates that asymmetric compound drops can be energetically favoured using continuation techniques. Furthermore, we investigate selected dewetting and coarsening processes and discuss emerging steady compound drops for two-dimensional (2D) substrates, thereby discussing the relation of 1D and 2D results.
