An adaptive moving mesh method for thin film flow equations with surface tension

作者:

Highlights:

• We are the first to implement r-adaptive schemes to higher order parabolic PDEs.

• This method accurately resolves the solution and reduces the computational effort.

• We introduce a new mesh density function that resolves multiple solution structures.

• This mesh density function is also adapted to include multiple solution components.
