Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the theoretical explanations of capillary action and the associated differential equation that describes the form of liquid droplets. The author provides a detailed examination of the theories of Laplace, Young, Gauss, and Poisson. It also includes a novel method of calculating the theoretical forms and volumes of both sessile and pendent drops of liquids, which is explained in an accessible and step-by-step manner. This method could prove useful in a wide range of scientific disciplines, such as chemistry, physics, and engineering. The book also provides an overview of previous experimental attempts to test the theories of capillary action, and concludes by discussing the significance and limitations of these theories in explaining the behavior of liquids.
