We carry out the calculation of the surface tension for a model electrolyte to first order in a cumulant expansion about a free field theory equivalent to the Debye-Huckel approximation. In contrast with previous calculations, the surface tension is calculated directly without recourse to integrating thermodynamic relations. The system considered is a monovalent electrolyte with a region at the interface, of width h, from which the ionic species are excluded. In the case where the external dielectric constant epsilon_0 is smaller than the electrolyte solutions dielectric constant epsilon we show that the calculation at this order can be fully regularized. In the case where h is taken to be zero the Onsager-Samaras limiting law for the excess surface tension of dilute electrolyte solutions is recovered, with corrections coming from a non-zero value of epsilon_0/epsilon.

We present a field theoretic model for friction, where the friction coefficient between two surfaces may be calculated based on elastic properties of the surfaces. We assume that the geometry of contact surface is not unusual. We verify Amontons laws
to hold that friction force is proportional to the normal load.This model gives the opportunity to calculate the static coefficient of friction for a few cases, and show that it is in agreement with observed values. Furthermore we show that the coefficient of static friction is independent of apparent surface area in first approximation.
A model for the limiting surface tension of surfactant solutions (surface tension at and above the critical micelle concentration, cmc) was developed. This model takes advantage of the equilibrium between the surfactant molecules on the liquid/vacuum
surface and in micelles in the bulk at the cmc. An approximate analytical equation for the surface tension at the cmc was obtained. The derived equation contains two parameters, which characterize the intermolecular interactions in the micelles, and the third parameter, which is the surface area per surfactant molecule at the interface. These parameters were calculated using a new atomistic modeling approach. The performed calculations of the limiting surface tension for four simple surfactants show good agreement with experimental data (~30% accuracy). The developed model provides the guidance for design of surfactants with low surface tension values.
In this paper we consider the two-loop calculation of the disjoining pressure of a symmetric electrolytic soap film. We show that the disjoining pressure is finite when the loop expansion is resummed using a cumulant expansion and requires no short d
istance cut-off. The loop expansion is resummed in terms of an expansion in g=l_B/l_D where l_D is the Debye length and l_B is the Bjerrum length. We show that there there is a non-analytic contribution of order g*ln(g). We also show that the two-loop correction is greater than the one-loop term at large film thicknesses suggesting a non-perturbative correction to the one-loop result in this limit.
In this paper we develop a field-theoretic description for run and tumble chemotaxis, based on a density functional description of crystalline materials modified to capture orientational ordering. We show that this framework, with its in-built multi-
particle interactions, soft-core repulsion and elasticity is ideal for describing continuum collective phases with particle resolution, but on diffusive timescales. We show that our model exhibits particle aggregation in an externally imposed constant attractant field, as is observed for phototactic or thermotactic agents. We also show that this model captures particle aggregation through self-chemotaxis, an important mechanism that aids quorum dependent cellular interactions.
The contact between a spherical indenter and a solid is considered. A numerical finite element model (F. E. M) to taking into account the surface tension of the solid is presented and assessed. It is shown that for nano-indentation of soft materials,
the surface tension of the solid influences significantly the reaction force due to indentation. The validity of the classical Hertz model is defined. In very good approximation, the force vs. indentation depth curve can be fitted by a power law function $F=a^delta b$ where $F$ denotes the force acting on the indentor, $d$ the indentation depth, $a$ and $bin ]1,1.5]$ are constants depending on the materials and the size of the indentor.
