摘要
A disconnected free surface consists of several separate pieces (connectivity components). The connectivity components and solid walls bound a connected liquid region. Generally, the stabilitly problem for such equilibrium configurations cannot be simply reduced to a set of independent problems for each connectivity component. Rather: the set of connectivity components. the solid walls and the connected liquid region must be considered simultaneously. In this review; we outline particular properties of the stability of mechanical equilibrium of systems with disconnected free surfaces and summarize the results of previous work. Several open problems are also discussed.
