Computation of capillary surfaces for the Laplace–Young equation

A novel hybrid finite-element/finite-volume numerical method is developed to determine the capillary rise of a liquid with a free surface (under surface tension and gravitational forces). The few known exact analytical solutions are used to verify the numerical computations and establish their accur...
