Abstract

Surface wave dynamics in small scale configurations can be substantially modified by edge constraints, in particular a pinned contact line, when the force it exerts is non-negligible with respect to gravity and surface tension. This work develops a hybrid approach, which combines a theoretical model with a complete space-time resolved measurement of the surface deformation and static menisci, allowing an accurate estimation of the contribution of a pinned contact line to shift the dispersion relation towards faster phase velocities.
