Stability of Equilibria for Two-Phase Flows with Soluble Surfactant
Stability of Equilibria for Two-Phase Flows with Soluble Surfactant
The presence of surfactants, ubiquitous at most fluid–liquid interfaces, has a pronounced effect on the surface tension, hence on the stress balance at the phase boundary: local variations of the capillary forces induce transport of momentum along the interface—so-called Marangoni effects. The mathematical model governing the dynamics of such systems …
