Travelling-wave similarity solutions for an unsteady shear-stress-driven dry patch in a flowing film

We investigate unsteady flow of a thin film of Newtonian fluid around a symmetric slender dry patch moving with constant velocity on an inclined planar substrate, the flow being driven by a prescribed constant shear stress at the free surface of the film (which would be of uniform thickness in the a...
