Class
    Foam::regionModels::areaSurfaceFilmModels::dynamicContactAngleForce

Description
    Film-speed or film-temperature dependent
    contact-angle force with a stochastic perturbation.

    The contact angle in degrees is specified as a \c Foam::Function1 type,
    to enable the use of, e.g. \c constant, \c polynomial, \c table values
    and the stochastic perturbation obtained from a
    \c Foam::distributionModels::distributionModel.

Usage
    Minimal example:
    \verbatim
    forces
    (
        dynamicContactAngle
    );

    dynamicContactAngleForceCoeffs
    {
        // Mandatory entries
        distribution    <subDict>;

        // Conditional entries

            // Option-1
            Utheta           <Function1<scalar>>;

            // Option-2
            Ttheta           <Function1<scalar>>;

        // Inherited entries
        ...
    }
    \endverbatim

    where the entries mean:
    \table
      Property              | Description              | Type  | Reqd | Deflt
      dynamicContactAngle   | Type name                | word  | yes  | -
      Utheta      | Contact angle as a function of film speed <!--
            -->                        | <Function1<scalar> | choice | -
      Ttheta      | Contact angle as a function of film temperature <!--
            -->                        | <Function1<scalar> | choice | -
      distribution  | Probability distribution model  | subDict | yes | -
    \endtable

    The inherited entries are elaborated in:
