An adaptive moving mesh method for thin film flow equations with surface tension (2017)
Journal Article
Naire. (2017). An adaptive moving mesh method for thin film flow equations with surface tension. Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 365-384. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cam.2017.01.019

We present an adaptive moving mesh method for the numerical solution of thin liquid film spreading flows with surface tension. We follow the r-adaptive moving mesh technique which utilises a mesh density function and moving mesh partial differential...

The spreading and stability of a surfactant-laden drop on an inclined prewetted substrate (2015)
Journal Article
Naire. (2015). The spreading and stability of a surfactant-laden drop on an inclined prewetted substrate. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 5-24. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0022112005008104

We consider a viscous drop, loaded with an insoluble surfactant, spreading over a flat plane that is covered initially with a thin liquid film. Lubrication theory allows the flow to be modelled using coupled nonlinear evolution equations for the film...
