Owing to the tendency of soap films to form the minimum surface area the surfaces of bubbles are spherical and intersect at 120°.

The Freundlich isotherms for the adsorption of some ortho-alkylated phenols on carbon from cyclohexane solution have been determined. The minimum surface area covered by the adsorbed phenols is compared with the area of the molecules themselves. Large alkyl groups ortho to the hydroxyl group greatly reduce the adsorption.

This paper presents a new method for reconstructing piecewise linear surfaces from planar polygonal contours that branch. For non-branching contours, experience has shown that the piecewise linear surface of minimum surface area which connects a pair of contours often provides a good solution. The current algorithm extends this idea by searching for the surface of minimal area which connects two contours comprised of more than one polygon. Several examples that justify this heuristic are provided.

The method of optimization of vessels sizes for the reasons of the minimum surface area of the hull is considered. The dependences of the optimal diameter, height and minimum surface area of the tank body on the volume are obtained.

AbstractGiven r > 1, we consider convex bodies in En which contain a fixed unit ball, and whose extreme points are of distance at least r from the centre of the unit ball, and we investigate how well these convex bodies approximate the unit ball in terms of volume, surface area and mean width. As r tends to one, we prove asymptotic formulae for the error of the approximation, and provide good estimates on the involved constants depending on the dimension.
