contact line velocity

The figure below shows the behavior of the contact line velocity and the behavior of the dynamic contact angle versus time.

Fig.1 : Contact line velocity and dynamic contact angle versus time.

The dynamic contact angle depends on the contact line velocity. At the wall peaks changes the contact angle from the static advancing contact angle to the static receding contact angle and converse.
