A Study of Liquid Bridge Dynamics: an Application to Micro-Assembly/Une Etude de la Dynamique du Pont Liquide: une Application au Micro-Assemblage

Micro-assembly processes suffer from some breaches due to the continuing trend towards an increase in the production capabilities as well as in the size reduction of the components manipulated. Usual manipulating schemes have reached their limit and capillary forces constitute a valuable alternative...
