Motion of drops on a surface induced by thermal gradient and vibration

It is well known that a liquid drop with a low contact angle (approximately 45 degrees ) and low wetting hysteresis moves toward the colder region of a temperature gradient substrate as a result of the thermal Marangoni force. A moderately sized water drop, however, usually does not move on such a s...
