The simple device used to build a model for calculating the forces from surface tension acting on the cylinder

With a surfactant on the left-hand side of the cylinder, the mechanical forces that act on the cylinder are asymmetrical. If detached from the recipient walls, the cylinder would accelerate to the right.
