The project focuses on understanding the physics of wetting on elastic surfaces, known as Soft Wetting. It combines microscopic simulations and experimental techniques to explore how liquid interactions affect surface elasticity, with applications in materials science and engineering.
The physics of wetting, where a thin layer of fluid covers a solid substrate, finds numerous applications both in nature and industry.
While one usually considers the substrate to be perfectly rigid, in many practically important circumstances the surface exhibits strong elastic deformations.
Examples of such “Soft Wetting” phenomena are drops spreading on a gel, or roller bearings under heavy loads.
Given the increasing technology to control and tune properties of soft matter, there is a strong…
