Interplay of internal stresses, electric stresses and surface diffusion in polymer films
, 2011 We investigate two destabilization mechanisms for elastic polymer films and put them into a general framework: first, instabilities due to in-plane stress and second due to an externally applied electric field normal to the film's free surface.
