A direct relation between bending energy and contact angles for capillary bridges by Millet, Olivier, Gagneux , Gérard

“…The didactic object of these developments on differential geometry of curves and surfaces is to present fine and convenient mathematical strategies, adapted to the study of capillary bridges. The common thread is to be able to calculate accurately in any situation the bending stress over the free surface, represented mathematically by the integral of the Gaussian curvature over the surface (called the total curvature) involved in the generalized Young–Laplace equation. …”
