Abstract
This paper investigates an annular droplet on a horizontal fiber. The static state and the dynamic spreading process of the droplet is analyzed. A full model describing the profile of a static droplet is derived from the energy variation principle. To study the dynamical spreading of the droplet, we derive a lubrication model which is verified by the full model. It indicates that the lubrication model is valid for a thin droplet. Results of the...
