Interfacial Phenomena and Convection

By Alexander A. Nepomnyashcy, Manuel G. Velarde, Pierre Colinet, et al.

Interfacial Phenomena and Convection is a self-contained monograph that examines a rich variety of phenomena in which interfaces play a crucial role. From a unified perspective that embraces physical chemistry, fluid mechanics, and applied mathematics, the authors study recent developments related to the Marangoni effect, including patterned convection and instabilities, oscillatory/wavy phenomena, and turbulent phenomena. They examine B nard layers subjected to transverse and longitudinal thermal gradients and phenomena involving surface tension gradients as the driving forces, including falling films, drops, and liquid bridges.
