Long-wave theory of bounded two-layer films with a free liquid-liquid interface: Short- and long-time evolution
D. Merkt, A. Pototsky, M. Bestehorn +1
We consider two-layers of immiscible liquids confined between an upper and a lower rigid plate. The dynamics of the free liquid-liquid interface is described for arbitrary amplitud…
A phase-field description of surface-tension-driven instability
Rodica Borcia, Domnic Merkt, Michael Bestehorn
In this paper we report on 2D numerical simulations concerning linear and nonlinear evolution of surface-tension-driven instability in two-fluid systems heated from below using cla…
Alternative pathways of dewetting for a thin two-layer film of soft matter
Andrey Pototsky, Michael Bestehorn, Uwe Thiele +1
We consider two stacked ultra-thin layers of different liquids on a solid substrate. Using long-wave theory, we derive coupled evolution equations for the free liquid-liquid and li…
