Abstract

In this paper, we extend our previous work [A. Alharbi and S. Naire, An adaptive moving mesh method for thin film flow equations with surface tension, J. Computational and Applied Mathematics, 319 (2017), pp. 365-384.] on a one-dimensional r-adaptive moving mesh technique based on a mesh density function and moving mesh partial differential equations (MMPDEs) to two dimensions. As a test problem, we consider the gravitydriven thin film flow down an inclined and pre-wetted plane including surface tension and a moving contact line. This technique accurately captures and resolves the moving contact line and associated fingering instability. Moreover, the computational effort is hugely reduced in comparison to a fixed uniform mesh.
