Free-surface Stability

Free-Surface Stability is a hydrodynamic stability phenomenon characterized by the resistance of a fluid interface, subject to surface tension and gravitational or inertial forces, to perturbations in flows where the interface is unconstrained and exposed to a gaseous or vacuum phase.
