Surfactant spreading on liquid films in the Stokes regime

Characterizing the spreading of surfactants on the surface of a liquid film is central to our understanding of natural and technological processes ranging from cell propulsion and drug delivery in pulmonary airways to cleaning food processing surfaces. In this work, we analyze the spreading dynamics...
