Two cases of symmetry breaking of free surface flows

The present thesis consists of two parts; both are devoted to two celebrated old problems in fluid dynamics. The first deals with symmetry breaking in a liquid layer flowing down an inclined plane. The second problem concerns the equilibrium and symmetry breaking of interfacial polygonal patterns ge...
