The Capillary Interaction Between Two Vertical Cylinders

Particles floating at the surface of a liquid generally deform the liquid surface. Minimizing the energetic cost of these deformations results in an inter-particle force, which is usually attractive and causes floating particles to aggregate and form surface clusters. Here we present a numerical met...
