Sticking with droplets: Mathematical models of capillary adhesion

<p>A small amount of liquid trapped between two solid surfaces can pull them together because of the effects of surface tension. This effect is called capillary adhesion, and is thought to be important in many small-scale scenarios, including helping insects to adhere. In this thesis, we study...
