Dynamics and stability of thin liquid films

RV Craster, OK Matar - Reviews of modern physics, 2009 - APS
The dynamics and stability of thin liquid films have fascinated scientists over many decades:
the observations of regular wave patterns in film flows down a windowpane or along …

Axisymmetric wave regimes in viscous liquid film flow over a spinning disk

GM Sisoev, OK Matar, CJ Lawrence - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2003 - cambridge.org
Finite-amplitude capillary waves, which can accompany the axisymmetric flow of a thin
viscous film over a rotating disk, are considered. A system of approximate evolution …

Absorption of gas into a wavy falling film

GM Sisoev, OK Matar, CJ Lawrence - Chemical Engineering Science, 2005 - Elsevier
In this work, we present results of a study of gas absorption into a falling film on a vertical
substrate. The film flow is accompanied by the formation of nonlinear waves which strongly …

The flow of thin liquid films over spinning discs

GM Sisoev, OK Matar… - The Canadian Journal of …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Continous thin liquid film flows over spinning discs present technological advantages in that
the liquid film thickness can be controlled by the rotation speed, and can be made very thin …

Film flow down a fibre at moderate flow rates

GM Sisoev, RV Craster, OK Matar… - Chemical engineering …, 2006 - Elsevier
We consider axisymmetric fluid flow down the exterior of a rigid straight vertical cylinder and
model the emergence and propagation of the finite-amplitude waves that are created at the …

Falling films on flexible inclines

OK Matar, RV Craster, S Kumar - … Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2007 - APS
The nonlinear stability and dynamic behavior of falling fluid films is studied for flow over a
flexible substrate. We use asymptotic methods to deduce governing equations valid in …

Waves induced by instability in falling films of finite thickness

VY Shkadov, GM Sisoev - Fluid dynamics research, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
Nonlinear gravity-capillary waves in falling viscous films of finite thickness are here
investigated. Mathematical modelling of this problem is based on an evolution system with a …

Evolution scales for wave regimes in liquid film flow over a spinning disk

OK Matar, GM Sisoev, CJ Lawrence - Physics of Fluids, 2004 - pubs.aip.org
We study the spatiotemporal development of a thin viscous film flowing over a spinning disk.
A coupled system of evolution equations for the film thickness and volumetric flow rates in …

Gas absorption into a wavy film flowing over a spinning disc

GM Sisoev, OK Matar, CJ Lawrence - Chemical engineering science, 2005 - Elsevier
We present results for gas absorption into a liquid film flowing over a spinning disc. The flow
is accompanied by the formation of nonlinear waves which strongly influence the diffusion …
