Linear stability of source-type similarity solutions of the thin film equation
We study the stability of compactly-supported source-type self-similar solutions of the generalized thin film equation ht = -(hnhxxx)x. Using linear stability analysis, applied to the problem in similarity variables, we show that the source-type solutions are stable. These results are related to the...
