Coarsening dynamics of dewetting films.

Lubrication theory for unstable thin liquid films on solid substrates is used to model the coarsening dynamics in the long-time behavior of dewetting films. The dominant physical effects that drive the fluid dynamics in dewetting films are surface tension and intermolecular interactions with the sol...
