Capillary Forces between Concave Gripper and Spherical Particle for Micro-Objects Gripping

The capillary action between two solid surfaces has drawn significant attention in micro-objects manipulation. The axisymmetric capillary bridges and capillary forces between a spherical concave gripper and a spherical particle are investigated in the present study. A numerical procedure based on a...
