Droplet spreading under weak slippage : the waiting time phenomenon
A waiting time phenomenon for thin film equations
Numerical methods for fourth order nonlinear degenerate diffusion problems
Numerical schemes are presented for a class of fourth order diffusion problems. These problems arise in lubrication theory for thin films of viscous fluids on surfaces. The equations being in general fourth order degenerate parabolic, additional singular terms of second order may occur to model effects of gravity, molecular interactions or thermocapillarity. Furthermore, we incorporate nonlinear surface tension terms. Finally, in the case of a thin film flow driven by a surface active agent (surfactant),...
