Anisotropic surface energy plays a significant role in the stability
|
|
|
|
of a rod.
|
|
|
| • |
Both the magnitude and sign of the anisotropy determine whether
|
|
|
the contribution promotes or suppresses the Rayleigh instability.
|
|
|
| • |
Different cubic orientations react quite differently to the surface
|
|
|
|
tension anisotropy.
