Asymptotic regimes of ridge and rift formation in a thin viscous sheet model

We numerically and theoretically investigate the evolution of the ridges and rifts produced by the convergent and divergent motions of two substrates over which an initially uniform layer of a Newtonian liquid rests. We put particular emphasis on the various asymptotic self-similar and quasi-self-si...

Gratton, J. 2008 We numerically and theoretically investigate the evolution of the ridges and rifts produced by the convergent and divergent motions of two substrates over which an initially uniform layer of a Newtonian liquid rests. We put particular emphasis on the various asymptotic self-similar and quasi-self-similar regimes that occur in these processes. During the growth of a ridge, two self-similar stages occur; the first takes place in the initial linear phase, and the second is obtained for a large time. Initially, the width and the height of the ridge increase as t 1/2. For a very large time, the width grows as t 3/4, while the height increases as t 1/4. On the other hand, in the process of formation of a rift, there are three self-similar asymptotics. The initial linear phase is similar to that for ridges. The second stage corresponds to the separation of the current in two parts, leaving a dry region in between. Last, for a very large t, each of the two parts in which the current has separated approaches the self-similar viscous dam break solution. © 2008 American Institute of Physics. Fil:Perazzo, C.A.
