Metric theory of nematoelastic shells
L. M. Pismen
We consider three-dimensional reshaping of a thin nematoelastic film upon nematic-isotropic transition in the field of a charge one topological defect, leading to either cone or an…
Chemo-capillary instabilities of a contact line
L. M. Pismen
Equilibrium and motion of a contact line are viewed as analogs of phase equilibrium and motion of an interphase boundary. This point of view makes evident the tendency to minimizat…
Disjoining Potential and Spreading of Thin Liquid Layers in the Diffuse Interface Model Coupled to Hydrodynamics
Len M. Pismen, Yves Pomeau
The hydrodynamic phase field model is applied to the problem of film spreading on a solid surface. The disjoining potential, responsible for modification of the fluid properties ne…
Kink Arrays and Solitary Structures in Optically Biased Phase Transition
L. M. Pismen
An interphase boundary may be immobilized due to nonlinear diffractional interactions in a feedback optical device. This effect reminds of the Turing mechanism, with the optical fi…
Steady and Oscillatory Side-Band Instabilities in Marangoni Convection with Deformable Interface
A. A. Golovin, A. A. Nepomnyashchy, L. M. Pismen +1
The stability of Marangoni roll convection in a liquid-gas system with deformable interface is studied in the case when there is a nonlinear interaction between two modes of Marang…
