Research Interests for Mihaela Froehlich

Interest in studying rotation of thin films comes from the industrial process of spin coating where undesirable fingering instabilities have been observed. I work on computational model which describes dynamics of spinning thin film including effects of all forces affecting the fluid on the fluid motion.
