This project aims to transform our understanding of how liquids wet surfaces in order to provide a step-change in advanced material design. This will be achieved by developing a unifying theory of surface wetting by integrating new microscale models of dynamic wetting with new macroscale automated measurement techniques capable of rapidly generating large datasets, to determine precisely how surface chemistry and surface roughness influence wetting. Expected outcomes include predictive models of surface wetting across multiple scales, and robust high-throughput measurement methods informing optimal design of next-generation materials for all applications where liquids and surfaces interact.

该项目旨在改变我们对液体如何润湿表面的理解，以提供先进材料设计的一步变化。这将通过开发一个统一的表面润湿理论，通过整合新的微观动态润湿模型与新的宏观自动化测量技术，能够快速生成大型数据集，以准确地确定表面化学和表面粗糙度如何影响润湿。预期成果包括跨多个尺度的表面润湿预测模型，以及强大的高通量测量方法，为液体和表面相互作用的所有应用提供下一代材料的最佳设计。
