The dynamics of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability of a two-dimensional thin liquid film placed on the underside of a planar substrate subjected to either normal or tangential harmonic forcing is investigated here in the framework of a set of long-wave evolution equations accounting for inertial effects derived earlier by Bestehorn, Han, and Oron [“Nonlinear pattern formation in thin liquid films under external vibrations,” Phys. Rev. E 88, 023025 (2013)]. In the case of tangential vibration, the linear stability analysis of the time-periodic base state with a flat interface shows the existence of the domain of wavenumbers where the film is unstable. In the case of normal vibration, the linear stability analysis of the quiescent base state reveals that the instability threshold of the system is depicted by a combination of distinct thresholds separate for the Rayleigh-Taylor and Faraday instabilities. The nonlinear dynamics of the film interface in the case of the static substrate results in film rupture. Ho...
