Grand potential densities of wall–liquid interfaces approaching complete drying

Abstract
We present molecular dynamics computer simulation data for the pressure tensor components of planar wall–liquid interfaces, along two ‘‘orthogonal’’ approaches to complete drying states. The interfacial structure varies from incipient solid-like packing, at positive adsorption, to smooth behavior, close to complete drying. We pay particular attention to the accompanying changes in the grand potential density, or to be more precise, in the transverse component of the pressure tensor of Irving and Kirkwood.
