Instabilities in Gravity Driven Flow of Thin Fluid Films

SIAM Review, 2003
Summary: This paper presents theoretical, computational, and experimental aspects of the instability development in the flow of thin fluid films. The theoretical part involves basic fluid mechanics and presents derivation of the thin film equation using lubrication approximation. A simplified version of this equation is then analyzed analytically using

Thermodynamics of thin fluid films

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1994
When fluids are confined within narrow spaces, their phase equilibria, structural, and dynamical properties become quantitatively and qualitatively different from their bulk values. The conditions obtained at thermodynamic equilibrium between a thin film and bulk fluid are derived in this paper.

Capacitance of thin dipolar fluid films

Journal of the Chemical Society, Faraday Transactions 2, 1982
It is shown that for certain simple fluids the free energy is a functional of the local number density and local polarisation only. For such a fluid, a formula for the dielectric constant in terms of the direct correlation function is obtained. The theory is applied to a fluid of hard-sphere dipoles described in the mean spherical approximation.

The effect of gravity on thin fluid films

Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 1984
Abstract The effect of gravity on the existence at equilibrium of thin fluid films is studied. The equilibrium conditions under the effect of gravity are developed and applied to specific cases of practical significance. It is concluded that, in contrast to the nongravitational situation, the effect of gravity allows in some cases the existence of a ...

Water‐Templated Growth of Interfacial Superglue Polymers for Tunable Thin Films and In Situ Fluid Encapsulation

Advanced Materials
Thin polymer films are indispensable elements in numerous technologies ranging from liquid encapsulation to biotechnology to electronics. However, their production typically relies on wet chemistry involving organic solvents or chemical vapor deposition,

Thin film of non-Newtonian fluid on an incline

Physical Review E, 2003
The slow flow of thin liquid films on solid surfaces is an important phenomenon in nature and in industrial processes, and an intensive effort has been made to investigate it. It is well known that the contact line of currents on an inclined surface may become unstable and then a pattern of "fingers" develops that affects the quality of the coatings ...
