Resumo |
Soft matter deforms in response to imposed external forces. Here we demonstrate how dynamic surface forces are linked to far-field deformations. This offers a new paradigm for determining forces between soft particles in colloidal systems. The particular example we use to illustrate this concept is that of a fluid drop interacting with a solid wall through hydrodynamic drainage flow coupled with repulsive or attractive dissimilar electrical double layer interactions. The force can be deduced from a simple analysis of the drop surface geometry outside the interaction zone.<br /> |
