【 摘 要 】

The subject matter of this thesis is concerned with the stability of fluid flows; more particularly , with the stability of liquid films which have an interface with air. We will therefore begin by formulating the basic equations and ideas which pertain to this class of problems. Later in this chapter, a summary will be given of the topics dealt with in this dissertation.
