Abstract
The ripple dynamics for film-covered surfaces is computed using linear hydrodynamic theory. A good agreement with the experimental data is f ound for dependencies of wavelength and damping coefficient on film de nsity. The shapes of these dependencies are explained on the basis of a simple geometrical conception.
