Abstract: Steady two-dimensional thin-film flow of a Newtonian fluid is examined in this theoretical study. The influence of exit conditions and gravity is examined in detail. The considered flow is of ...

Abstract: Linear stability analysis of fully developed axisymmetric steady spatially modulated Taylor–Couette flow (TCF) is carried out in the narrow-gap limit. In contrast to unforced TCF, only the vortical ...

Abstract: The influence of inertia and boundary conditions on the steady state and stability of isothermal film casting of viscoelastic fluids is examined using a Phan-Thien–Tanner rheological model. The ...

Abstract: The transient two-dimensional flow of a thin Newtonian fluid film over a moving substrate of arbitrary shape is examined in this theoretical study. The interplay among inertia, initial conditions, ...

Abstract: In order to understand the effects of inertia and gravity on draw resonance and on the physical mechanism of draw resonance in three-dimensional Newtonian film casting, a linear stability ...
