title = "Three-phase capillarity",
abstract = "We discuss a few situations where a liquid is brough into contact with a solid, with air around. Starting from the very classical Young equation, we present recent developments in the field, such as the possibility of generating spontaneous motions, or the wetting of textured surfaces. Then, we describe a few dynamic situations, in particular wicking, creeping and coating.",
