The Deformation and Rupture of Thin Liquid Films

数值模拟的基础上边界积分法是要 应用于研究液膜稳定性时， 重力表面张力和剪切力这些电影将被视为 高粘性的，通常的简化近似， 由此假设膜厚度变化随着波的传播而发生， 长度远大于薄膜厚度，将不必 采用薄膜不稳定性的发展将被跟踪 在数值上进入表面变形已经成为 非常大。这项研究与电影中的现象有关 涂层、润滑和泡沫等技术。

Numerical modeling based on the boundary integral method is to be applied to the study of liquid film stability under the action of gravity, surface tension, and shear. The films will be considered as highly viscous, and the usual simplifying approximation, whereby film thickness variations are assumed to occur with wave lengths much larger than the film thickness, will not have to be used. The development of film instabilities will be followed numerically into the regime where surface deformation has become very large. The research is relevant to phenomena in film technologies such as coating, lubrication, and foams.
