Thermo-mechanically-consistent phase-field modeling of thin film flows

We use phase-field techniques coupled with a Coleman-Noll type procedure to derive a family of thermomechanically consistent models for predicting the evolution of a non volatile thin liquid film on a flat substrate starting from mass conservation laws and the second law of thermodynamics, and provi...
