The free surface of a thin soft polymer film is often found to become unstable and self- organizes into various meso-scale structures. In this article we classify the instability of a thin …
This monograph provides a detailed review of the state-of-the-art theoretical (analytical and numerical) methodologies for the analysis of dissipative wave dynamics and pattern …
Interfacial Phenomena and Convection is a self-contained monograph that examines a rich variety of phenomena in which interfaces play a crucial role. From a unified perspective that …
Hydrodynamic pattern formation (PF) and dewetting resulting from pulsed-laser-induced melting of nanoscopic metal films have been used to create spatially ordered metal …

Electrostatic field induced instability, morphology, and patterning of a thin liquid film confined between two electrodes with an air gap are studied on the basis of nonlinear 3D simulations …
We have observed nanopattern formation with robust and controllable spatial ordering by laser-induced dewetting in nanoscopic metal films. Pattern evolution in Co film of thickness …
The stability of thin liquid coatings plays a fundamental role in everyday life. We studied the stability conditions of thin (3 to 300 nm) liquid polymer films on various substrates. The key …
