Stability of a twisted Plateau border with line tension and bending stiffness

The stability of a Plateau border between three soap films is considered, taking into account the effects of line tension and bending stiffness in the border. A simple geometry is considered, in which the border initially lies in equilibrium along the axis of a circular cylinder, with three equally...
