Description

We introduce the sharp interface models for moving contact lines with surfactant, polymeric fluids, and elastic membrane. A continuous model with the boundary conditions is derived for the dynamics of two immiscible fluids with moving contact lines based on thermodynamic principles. Immersed boundary based numerical method is developed to solve the resulting free boundary problem. We also discuss the model reduction of the slip model to the no-slip limit by the technique of asymptotic analysis.
