Abstract

An analysis is presented for the stability of a viscoelastic liquid film flowing down an inclined plane with respect to three-dimensional disturbances. It is shown that under certain circumstances, these disturbances are more unstable than the two-dimensional ones, contrary to Squire's theorem.
