Surface-tension-and injection-driven spreading of a thin viscous film

KB Kiradjiev, CJW Breward, IM Griffiths - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2019 - cambridge.org
We consider the spreading of a thin viscous droplet, injected through a finite region of a
substrate, under the influence of surface tension. We neglect gravity and assume that there …

An experimental investigation of shear-driven rivulets on a flat plate by using a two-perspective view

A Schlottke, M Zimmermann, B Weigand - Physics of Fluids, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
Shear-driven liquid rivulet flow on a horizontal plate is experimentally investigated. In
contrast to publications found in the literature, a two-side view on the rivulet is used to …

Non-Newtonian Pressure-Governed Rivulet Flows on Inclined Surface

SV Ershkov, DD Leshchenko - Mathematics, 2024 - mdpi.com
We have generalized, in the current study, the results of research presented earlier with the

substrate which is strongly coupled to the external pressure gradient arising from an inviscid …

Unsteady shear-stress-driven rivulet flows with strong surface-tension effect

NA Redwan, YM Yatim, NI Khairudin - AIP Conference Proceedings, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
Motivated by the lubrication approximation application from the small-scale activity in
dermatology to the big-scale process in coating industry involving flow driven by shear …

Fluid driven by tangential velocity and shear stress: Mathematical analysis, numerical experiment, and implication to surface flow

HS Tang, LZ Zhang, JPY Maa, H Li… - Mathematical …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
This paper investigates behaviors of flows driven by tangential velocity and shear stress on
their boundaries such as solid walls and water surfaces. In a steady flow between two …

Experimental validation of analytical models for liquid film breakup on rotating substrates

H Line, H Steiner, G Brenn - Chemical Engineering Science, 2019 - Elsevier
Many models for predicting the breakup of liquid films spreading over solid substrates have
been proposed over the years, each taking a different approach to modelling the minimum …

Similarity solution for an unsteady dry patch in a shear-stress-driven thin film of non-Newtonian power-law fluid
