Summary:By direct integration of the are presented for the axisymmetric sessile geometrical parameters, including the apex Young-Laplace relation, a set of identities drops on fiat and curved substrates. The curvature, the apex height, and the contact radius, are related by the identities. The validity of the identities is checked by various numerical solutions for drops on flat and curved substrates.
