On the flow of a viscous thin layer on an inclined plane driven by a constant surface tension gradient

Steady flow of a thin layer (trickle, rivulet) of viscous fluid down an inclined surface is considered, via a thin-film approximation. The work extends the study by Duffy and Moffatt [7] of gravity-driven thin trickle of viscous fluid to include the effects of a surface tension gradient. It acts...
