Abstract
The essential differences between material sciences experiments in a laboratory on ground and in a microgravity environment result from fluidstatic and fluiddynamic or convective effects. With the numerous implications of fluid physics on topics like casting, separation of immiscible alloys, and crystal growth being discussed in the preceding chapters, this chapter is devoted to the more basic phenomena capillarity, flow mechanics, wetting and spreading, and interface convection.
