The study of the dewetting of very thin polymer films has recently revealed many unexpected features (e.g. unusual rim morphologies and front velocities) which have been the focus of several theoretical models. Surprisingly, one of the most striking features, that is the decrease of the rim width with time, has not yet been explained. In the present letter, we show how the combined effects of a non-linear friction between the film and the substrate, and the presence of residual stresses within the film, result in the presence of a maximum in the time evolution of the rim width. Our model allows a quantitative evaluation of the residual stresses and a characterization of the friction between the polymer film and the substrate. In addition, we show how the introduction of a non-linear friction simply explains the experimentally observed rapid decrease of the dewetting velocity with time.
