“…Next, in figure 12( a – d ), we present the stability diagrams for four different sizes of the periodic unit cell, and 20, respectively, while keeping constant the scales of the other geometrical characteristics. For short wall wavelengths, see figure 12( a ), the film is relatively thick compared to the substrate variations resulting in an almost planar film shape (Sharma, Ray & Papageorgiou 2019). Hence, the neutral curve resembles that of the Nusselt flow, see the black dashed line in figure 12( a ).…”
