Instability and dripping of electrified liquid films flowing down inverted substrates
Ruben J Tomlin, Radu Cimpeanu, Demetrios T Papageorgiou
We consider the gravity-driven flow of a perfect dielectric, viscous, thin liquid film, wetting a flat substrate inclined at a non-zero angle to the horizontal. The dynamics of the…

Point-actuated feedback control of multidimensional interfaces
Ruben J. Tomlin, Susana N. Gomes
We consider the application of feedback control strategies with point actuators to stabilise desired interface shapes. We take a multidimensional Kuramoto--Sivashinsky equation as…

Optimal control of thin liquid films and transverse mode effects
Ruben J. Tomlin, Susana N. Gomes, Grigorios A. Pavliotis +1
We consider the control of a three-dimensional thin liquid film on a flat substrate, inclined at a non-zero angle to the horizontal. Controls are applied via same-fluid blowing and…
