The free surface of a thin soft polymer film is often found to become unstable and self-
organizes into various meso-scale structures. In this article we classify the instability of a thin …

We briefly review recent advances in the hydrodynamic modeling of the dynamics of
droplets on adaptive substrates, in particular, solids that are covered by polymer brushes …

The interfacial convection in multilayer systems is a widespread phenomenon that is of great
importance in numerous branches of technology, including chemical engineering, space …

When a simple or complex liquid recedes from a smooth solid substrate it often leaves a
homogeneous or structured deposit behind. In the case of a receding non-volatile pure …

We consider the time evolution of a sessile drop of volatile partially wetting liquid on a rigid
solid substrate. The drop evaporates under strong confinement, namely, it sits on one of the …

We consider a thin film consisting of two layers of immiscible liquids on a solid horizontal
(heated) substrate. Both the free liquid–liquid and the liquid–gas interface of such a bilayer …

We present a theory for the interfacial wetting phase behavior of binary liquid mixtures on
rigid solid substrates, applicable to both miscible and immiscible mixtures. In particular, we …

We highlight some recent developments that widen the scope and reach of mesoscopic thin-
film (or long-wave) hydrodynamic models employed to describe the dynamics of thin films …

The review is devoted to the physical, chemical, and technological aspects of the breath-
figure self-assembly process. The main stages of the process and impact of the polymer …

In the present contribution we review basic mathematical results for three physical systems
involving self-organizing solid or liquid films at solid surfaces. The films may undergo a …
