This book is a revised edition of my earlier book of the same title. The cur rent edition adopts
the structure of the earlier version but is much changed. The introduction now contains …

The primary instability of axisymmetric steady thermocapillary flow in a cylindrical liquid
bridge with non‐deformable free surface is calculated by a mixed Chebychev‐finite …

A century after Henri Bénard discovered cellular convective structures, thermal convection in
fluid layers still remains a central subject in nonlinear physics. Within this framework, surface …

Combined thermocapillary–buoyancy convection in a thin rectangular geometry is
investigated experimentally, with an emphasis on the generation of hydrothermal-wave …

The stability of the flow in a half-zone configuration is analysed with the aid of direct
numerical simulation. The work is concentrated on the small Prandtl numbers relevant for …

The rapid accumulation of particles suspended in a thermocapillary liquid bridge is planned
to be investigated during the JEREMI experiment on the International Space Station …

In the present study, we focus on the computational analysis of partial differential equations
with emphasis on the stability of the equilibrium states and on their bifurcations. In practical …

We report on the behavior of small particles of dilute concentration in time-dependent
(oscillatory) thermocapillary flow in cylindrical liquid bridges. The particles accumulate in a …

The thermocapillary flow in liquid bridges is investigated numerically. In the limit of large
mean surface tension the free-surface shape is independent of the flow and temperature …

The linear stability of the axisymmetric steady thermocapillary flow in a liquid bridge made
from 2 cSt silicone oil (Prandtl number 28) is investigated numerically in the framework of the …
