Abstract

The asymptotic analysis of boundary layers of random thinness and of higher Reynolds number separating two interacting incompressible viscous fluid flows is described using Γ-convergence methods. An asymptotic interfacial contact law is derived, which involves the jumps of the velocity and of the pressures of the fluids through an ergodic coefficient.
