Abstract

Analytical prediction of capillary pattern collapse is done by balancing the capillary forcesdue to the curved liquid interface with the elastic forces due to the bending of the structure. This paperintroduces a more realistic model where there is an array of repeating lines and spaces, and compares itto the traditional model of two single lines with liquid-filled space in between. This paper also includesthe influence of a non-vertical sidewall angle, and its effect on the overall elastic force. Results showthat the repeating structures and non-vertical sidewall angles both predict a higher critical height beforecollapse occurs compared to the traditional model.
