Thermal and hydrodynamic interactions between a liquid droplet and a fluid interface

The research presented in this thesis was motivated by the desire to understand the flow field within a new digital microfluidic device currently under development. This required an investigation of the dynamics of a droplet migrating along the surface of another fluid due to interfacial surface ten...
