22. The second radius of curvature is not exactly a, since a measures the radius of the contact line. However, for drops with h ≠a the difference is a higher-order effect.
23. Examination of Fig. 4 reveals that d u z / d r, and hence d u ˜ z / d r, is steepest at the contact line, r ˜ = 1. In fact, for a substrate with infinite thickness, d I / d r is logarithmically singular at this point. The weak nature of this singularity, however, means that even large values of d / a produce d u ˜ z / d r ˜ that is of order 1. Furthermore, it is likely that local effects due to the contact line force and the surface tension of the solid will weaken the singularity [12].
