Three-dimensional nonlinear dynamics of thin liquid films

Three-dimensional dynamics of thin Newtonian liquid films subjected to long-range van der Waals forces on a horizontal coated solid surface is numerically studied in the framework of the long-wave theory. The dynamics of nonvolatile films results in the emergence of an isolated steady drop standing on a practically flat film, while volatile films uniformly disappear on the macroscale. In both cases the evolution of the initial small-amplitude noise spans over the stages of self-organization, fast thinning of the depressions, formation and expansion of the "holes," emergence of the polygonal network of liquid ridges, and its breakup, as seen in the experiments.

Phenomenological model of dynamic nonlinear response of relaxor ferroelectrics

A phenomenological model was proposed which describes frequency dispersion of nonlinear dielectric response of relaxor ferroelectrics (relaxors) as a result of dispersion of their linear dielectric permittivity. The model was applied to Pb(Mg(1/3)Nb(2/3))O3 (PMN) relaxor. It provided a good qualitative description of temperature and frequency dependence of the third harmonics of PMN. Analysis within the model yielded a frequency independent nonlinear coefficient corresponding to static nonlinear dielectric susceptibility. The model explained the recently reported for PMN data on the Vogel-Fulcher law for frequency dependence of the temperature at which the third harmonics passes a maximum.
