... 24 08 2009 This article describes the effect of electrode shape in electrowetting-based droplet actuation. A Volume of Fluid technique is applied to track the 3-D interface. The Laplace equation is solved to predict the time and space dependent electric field in the domain. The onset...

... an idealized cylindrical and an actual conical electrode shape. Calculations are also carried out for different heat loss rates along the free surface and teh furnace wall. Results show that the electrode shape has slight influence on slag flow behavior and the cylindrical electrode geometry may be used...

... be known and it must be compatible with the welding conditions [2]. The present paper reports the relationship between contact resistance, force, and electrode shape. A series of experiments were carried out using aluminium and steel specimens with different thicknesses to measure the faying surface...
