Two-dimensional pulse dynamics and the formation of bound states on electrified falling films
Two-dimensional pulse dynamics and the formation of bound states on electrified falling films
The flow of an electrified liquid film down an inclined plane wall is investigated with the focus on coherent structures in the form of travelling waves on the film surface, in particular, single-hump solitary pulses and their interactions. The flow structures are analysed first using a long-wave model, which is …
