A review of the dynamics of contained oil slicks in flowing water / Y.L. Lau and S.A. Kirchhefer, Hydraulics Division, Inland Waters Directorate, Canada Centre for Inland Waters, Environment Canada, Burlington,... : En46-3/74-3E-PDF
"A review of published papers dealing with the dynamics of contained oil slicks in flowing water was made. It was found that the various writers all assumed one-dimensional flows and used the continuity and momentum equations to obtain the thickness of the oil slick. The analysis of Wilkinson was considered to be the most reliable because it was the only one in which finite flow depths were considered and it is mainly the effect of finite depth which causes the inequilibrium of the oil slick. ... It was concluded that more work is required to answer many of the questions related to oil spill containment and control. Recommendations are made for further research"--Abstract, page i.
