We consider stability of steady convective flows in a horizontal layer with stress-free boundaries, heated below and rotating about the vertical axis, in the Boussinesq approximation (the Rayleigh-Benard convection). The flows under…
When subcritical shear flows transition to turbulence, laminar and turbulent flow often coexists in space, giving rise to turbulent-laminar patterns. Most prominent are regular stripe patterns with large-scale periodicity and oblique…

Reaction-nonlinear diffusion partial differential equations can exhibit shock-fronted travelling wave solutions. Prior work by Yi et. al. (2021) has demonstrated the existence of such waves for two classes of regularisations, including…
We consider a general reaction--nonlinear-diffusion equation with a region of negative diffusivity, and show how a nonlinear regularisation selects a shock position. Negative diffusivity can model population aggregation, but leads to…
