ME 125YZ: INTERFACIAL PHENOM
University of California, Santa Barbara
Introduces fundamental and applied aspects of interfacial systems. The cour se covers theory of capillarity, interfacial tensions, Laplace pressure, cu rvature effects on the equilibrium states of fluids, surfactants, fundament als of wetting and contact angle, adhesion, cohesion, and spreading, superh ydrophilicity and superhydrophobicity. Relevant research fields are be intr oduced, including oil-water separation, electronics cooling, condensation, and bio-inspired functional surfaces.
