Localized Marangoni forcing in driven thin films
We consider the use of localized Marangoni forcing to produce a thermocapillary "microfluidic valve" that allows us to control the downstream flow of a thin film of viscous fluid. To this end, we analyze the influence of this localized forcing on a flow driven by a combination of uniform M...
