The applications of wettability range from self-cleaning windows to micro- and nanofluidics. \u003cp\u003eThis book represents the cumulative wisdom of a contingent of world-class (researchers engaged in the domain of wettability. In the last few years there has been tremendous interest in the \"Lotus Leaf Effect\" and in understanding its mechanism and how to replicate this effect for myriad applications. The topics of superhydrophobicity, omniphobicity and superhydrophilicity are of much contemporary interest and these are covered in depth in this book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface xvii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements xxi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart 1: Fundamental Aspects 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Correlation between Contact Line Pinning and Contact Angle Hysteresis on Heterogeneous Surfaces: A Review and Discussion 3\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eMohammad Amin Sarshar, Wei Xu, and Chang-Hwan Choi\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 Introduction 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 Contact Line Pinning on Chemically Heterogeneous Flat Surfaces 4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 Contact Line Pinning on Hydrophobic Structured Surfaces 7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.4 Summary and Conclusion 14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Computational and Experimental Study of Contact Angle Hysteresis in Multiphase Systems 19\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eVahid Mortazavi, Vahid Hejazi, Roshan M D'Souza, and Michael Nosonovsky\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Introduction 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Origins of the CA Hysteresis 24\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Modeling Wetting\/Dewetting in Multiphase Systems 27\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Experimental Observations 30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.5 Numerical Modeling of CA Hysteresis 35\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.6 Conclusions 44\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Heterogeneous Nucleation on a Completely Wettable Substrate 49\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eMasao Iwamatsu\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.1 Introduction 49\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.2 Interface-Displacement Model 51\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.3 Nucleation on a Completely-Wettable Flat Substrate 54\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.4 Nucleation on a Completely-Wettable Spherical Substrate 65\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.5 Conclusion 69\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 Local Wetting at Contact Line on Textured Hydrophobic Surfaces 73\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eRi Li and Yanguang Shan\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.1 Introduction 73\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.2 Static Contact Angle 76\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.3 Wetting of Single Texture Element 80\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.4 Summary 85\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5 Fundamental Understanding of Drops Wettability Behavior Theoretically and Experimentally 87\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eHartmann E.
