The topics covered by the conference are:

  • Marangoni effects
  • Interfacial instabilities and surface waves
  • Interfacial phenomena and phase transitions
  • Thermo- and solutocapillary flows
  • Boiling and evaporation
  • Heat pipes
  • Thin films
  • Droplet spreading
  • Contact angle and contact angle dynamics
  • Binary mixtures and surfactants
  • Coating processes
  • Microfluidics
  • Liquid bridges
  • Applications in material processing
  • Applications in bio-fluid systems

The Conference will last four days.

Sessions may be scheduled in the mornings, afternoons, and/or evenings.

There will be NO parallel sessions; this is one of the fundamental and traditional principles of the IMA conferences. Breaks between the sessions are included in the regular program to allow small group interactions.
