Abstract
Long-wave approximation for the spatiotemporal evolution of thermal and evaporative instabilities of a thin liquid film lying on a "thick" solid substrate is considered. It is shown that accounting for a nonzero thermal resistance of the solid eliminates the emergence of temperature, heat and mass flux singularities at the rupture point.
