Stability analysis of unsteady, nonuniform base states in thin film equations

We address the linear stability of unsteady and nonuniform base states within the class of mass conserving free boundary problems for degenerate and nondegenerate thin film equations. Well-known examples are the finger-instabilities of growing rims that appear in retracting thin solid and liquid fil...
