Floating and sinking of a pair of spheres at a liquid–fluid interface

Spheres floating at liquid–fluid interfaces cause interfacial deformations such that their weight is balanced by the resultant forces of surface tension and hydrostatic pressure while also satisfying a contact angle condition. Determining the meniscus shape around several floating spheres is a compl...
