Linear stability analysis (Bataille 1968)
As the interface moves, it experiences
perturbations due to inhomogeneities.
Any perturbation can be expressed as an
innite sum of wavelike functions.

following 2d governing equations:

Interface structure
A xed grid is used for the conservation equations but a moving
grid of lower dimension marks the boundary between the dierent
phases.
