Electrostatic control of the Navier-Stokes equations for thin films
Alexander W. Wray, Radu Cimpeanu, Susana N. Gomes
A robust control scheme is derived and tested for the Navier-Stokes equations for two-dimensional multiphase flow of a thin film underneath an inclined solid surface. Control is ex…
Active control of liquid film flows: beyond reduced-order models
Radu Cimpeanu, Susana N. Gomes, Demetrios T. Papageorgiou
The ability to robustly and efficiently control the dynamics of nonlinear systems lies at the heart of many current technological challenges, ranging from drug delivery systems to…
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…
Stabilising falling liquid film flows using feedback control
Alice B. Thompson, Susana N. Gomes, Grigorios A. Pavliotis +1
Falling liquid films become unstable due to inertial effects when the fluid layer is sufficiently thick or the slope sufficiently steep. This free surface flow of a single fluid la…
