Selected topics in viscous flow: Coating flow with rotation

This thesis consists of two parts concerning rotational molding and spin coating, respectively. Both parts consider coating flows which have relevance to industrial applications. The main theme of the thesis is to make appropriate simplifications to the mathematical descriptions of the flows in order to achieve meaningful analytical progress. Mathematically, the thesis involves making effective approximations so that a system of partial differential equations can be simplified into a set of more readily solvable ordinary differential equations.
