In this technical report, we consider a nonlinear 4th-order degenerate parabolic partial differential equation that arises in modelling the dynamics of an incompressible thin liquid film on the outer surface of a rotating horizontal…
We study the dynamic behaviour of solutions to a fourth-order quasilinear degenerate parabolic equation for large times arising in fluid dynamical applications. The degeneracy occurs both with respect to the unknown and with respect to the…
In this paper, we establish a novel approach to proving existence of non-negative weak solutions for degenerate parabolic equations of fourth order, like the Cahn-Hilliard and certain thin film equations. The considered evolution equations…
We study a class of fourth-order quasilinear degenerate parabolic equations under both time-and space-dependent and time-and space-independent forces, modeling non-Newtonian thin-film flow over a solid surface in the "complete wetting"…
This paper deals with a nonlinear degenerate parabolic equation of order $\alpha$ between 2 and 4 which is a kind of fractional version of the Thin Film Equation. Actually, this one corresponds to the limit value $\alpha=4$ while the Porous…
In this paper, we consider a family of one-dimensional fourth order evolution equations arising as gradient flows of the Korteweg energy, i.e. the $L^2$-norm of the first derivative of some power of the density. This family of equations…
We prove the global-in-time existence of nonnegative weak solutions to a class of fourth order partial differential equations on a convex bounded domain in arbitrary spatial dimensions. Our proof relies on the formal gradient flow structure…
A nonlinear parabolic equation of the fourth order is analyzed. The equation is characterized by a mobility coefficient that degenerates at 0. Existence of at least one weak solution is proved by using a regularization procedure and…
We study existence and long-time behaviour of strong solutions for the thin film equation using a priori estimates in a weighted Sobolev space. This equation can be classified as a doubly degenerate fourth-order parabolic and it models…
We study the steady states and dynamics of a thin film-type equation with non-conserved mass in one dimension. The evolution equation is a nonlinear fourth-order degenerate parabolic PDE motivated by a model of volatile viscous fluid films…
Motivated by models for thin films coating cylinders in two physical cases proposed by V.I. Kerchman and A.L. Frenkel, we analyze the dynamics of corresponding thin film models. The models are governed by nonlinear, fourth-order,…
We study the gradient-flow structure of a non-Newtonian thin film equation with power-law rheology. The equation is quasilinear, of fourth order and doubly-degenerate parabolic. By adding a singular potential to the natural Dirichlet…
We prove global existence of nonnegative weak solutions for a strongly coupled, fourth order degenerate parabolic system governing the motion of two thin fluid layers in a porous medium when capillarity is the sole driving mechanism.
We prove the existence of nonnegative martingale solutions to a class of stochastic degenerate-parabolic fourth-order PDEs arising in surface-tension driven thin-film flow influenced by thermal noise. The construction applies to a range of…
This paper studies a fourth-order, nonlinear, doubly-degenerate parabolic equation derived from the thin film equation in spherical geometry. A regularization method is used to study the equation and several useful estimates are obtained.…
We study the problem of existence and uniqueness of strong solutions to a degenerate quasilinear parabolic non-Newtonian thin-film equation. Originating from a non-Newtonian Navier--Stokes system the equation is derived by lubrication…
We prove global existence of nonnegative weak solutions to a degenerate parabolic system which models the interaction of two thin fluid films in a porous medium. Furthermore, we show that these weak solutions converge at an exponential rate…
The paper focuses on a model describing the spreading of an insoluble surfactant on a thin viscous film with capillary effects taken into account. The governing equation for the film height is degenerate parabolic of fourth order and…
In this Letter we investigate the rupture instability of thin liquid films by means of a bifurcation analysis in the vicinity of the short-scale instability threshold. The rupture time estimate obtained in closed form as a function of the…
A nonlinear fourth-order parabolic equation in one space dimension with periodic boundary conditions is studied. This equation arises in the context of fluctuations of a stationary nonequilibrium interface and in the modeling of quantum…
