Young-Laplace Equation: Pressure, Tension, Curvature

The Young-Laplace equation (YLE) describes the relationship between pressure difference, surface tension, and curvature in an interface between two fluids or a fluid and a vacuum. It has applications in various fields, including fluid dynamics, materials science, and thermodynamics. The YLE is a second-order partial differential equation that relates the pressure difference between two fluids to the mean curvature of the interface.
