Abstract
A thermomechanical model of continuous media based on second gradient theory has been used to study the motions in liquid-vapor interfaces. In the equilibrium state this model is shown to be fundamentally equivalent to molecular theories. Conservative motions in such fluids verify the first integrals that provide Kelvin’s circulation theorems and potential equations. The dynamic surface tension of a liquid-vapor interface has been deduced from equations written with a viscosity factor. The result provides and explains the Marangoni effect.
