Abstract

This report provides an investigation into solving the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation in two spatial dimensions (2DKS) using a pseudo-spectral method on various rectangular periodic domains. The Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation is a fluid dynamics model that exhibits dynamical features that are highly dependent on the length of the periodic domain. The goals of this report are to describe the mathematical problem; explain the details of the chosen numerical method; inspect solutions and dynamical features for varying grid sizes, step sizes, and domains; and summarize the findings.

Missing term in derivation and misplaced variable in implementation which invalidates the numerical results. Corrected theoretical and numerical results will be included within a future submission on this topic
