This study presents a nonautonomous boundary value problem, arising from the surface-tension driven flow in a cylindrical floating zone. It is shown that this problem possesses exactly eight different types of solutions. In addition, multiple solutions are also found when the Reynold's number Q is sufficiently large.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
