Liquid film coating a fiber as a model system for the formation of bound states in active dispersive-dissipative nonlinear media
journal contribution
posted on 2014-08-11, 11:21 authored by Camille Duprat, Frédérique Giorgiutti-Dauphiné, Dmitri TseluikoDmitri Tseluiko, Sergey Saprykin, Serafim KalliadasisWe analyze the coherent-structure interaction and the formation of bound states in active dispersivedissipative
nonlinear media using a viscous film coating a vertical fiber as a prototype. The coherent
structures in this case are droplike pulses that dominate the evolution of the film.We study experimentally
the interaction dynamics and show evidence for formation of bound states. A theoretical explanation is
provided through a coherent-structures theory of a simple model for the flow.
