In the inclined layer convection system, thermal convection in a Rayleigh--B\'enard cell tilted against gravity, the flow is subject to competing buoyancy and shear forces. For varying inclination angle ($\gamma$) and Rayleigh number…
The main objective of this article is to study the three-dimensional Rayleigh-Benard convection in a rectangular domain from a pattern formation perspective. It is well known that as the Rayleigh number crosses a critical threshold, the…
We investigate instabilities and chaos near the onset of Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection (RBC) of electrically conducting fluids with free-slip, perfectly electrically and thermally conducting boundary conditions in presence of uniform…
The initial bifurcations in rotating Rayleigh-B\'enard convection are studied in the range of dimensionless rotation rate $0 < \Omega < 2150$ for an aspect-ratio-2.5 cylindrical cell. We used simultaneous optical shadowgraph, heat transport…
We investigate the instabilities and associated bifurcation structure near the onset of rotating magnetoconvection of low Prandtl number fluids by performing three dimensional direct numerical simulations. Previous studies considered zero…
Large-scale patterns, which are well-known from the spiral defect chaos regime of thermal convection at Rayleigh numbers $Ra < 10^4$, continue to exist in three-dimensional numerical simulations of turbulent Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection…
We test the ability of a low-dimensional turbulence model to predict how dynamics of large-scale coherent structures such as convection rolls change in different cell geometries. We performed Rayleigh-B\'enard convection experiments in a…
We present the first large scale numerical simulation of three-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'enard convection near onset, under free-free boundary conditions for a fluid of Prandtl number $\sigma=0.5$. We find that a spatiotemporally chaotic…
We report experiments on convection patterns in a cylindrical cell with a large aspect ratio. The fluid had a Prandtl number of approximately 1. We observed a chaotic pattern consisting of many rotating spirals and other defects in the…
Numerous study on natural and man made systems including rotating convection report the phenomena of supercritical and subcritical transitions from one state to another with the variation of relevant control parameters. However, the…
We use nonlinear signal processing techniques, based on artificial neural networks, to construct an empirical mapping from experimental Rayleigh-Benard convection data in the quasiperiodic regime. The data, in the form of a one-parameter…
We present results of direct numerical simulations on homoclinic gluing and ungluing bifurcations in low-Prandtl-number ($ 0 \leq Pr \leq 0.025 $) Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard system rotating slowly and uniformly about a vertical axis. We have…
We investigate the large-scale circulation (LSC) in a turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection flow in a cubic closed convection cell by means of direct numerical simulations at a Rayleigh number $Ra=10^6$. The numerical studies are conducted…
We adopt the stretched spiral vortex sub-grid model for large-eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent convection at extreme Rayleigh numbers. We simulate Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC) for Rayleigh numbers ranging from $10^6$ to $10^15$ and…
It is shown, by the means of distributed chaos approach and using the experimental data, that at very large Rayleigh number $Ra > 10^{14}$ and Prandtl number $Pr \sim 1$ the Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard turbulence can undergo a transition related to…
The coarsening and wavenumber selection of striped states growing from random initial conditions are studied in a non-relaxational, spatially extended, and far-from-equilibrium system by performing large-scale numerical simulations of…
In this paper we investigate two-dimensional (2D) Rayleigh-B\'enard convection using direct numerical simulation in Boussinesq fluids of Prandtl number $P = 6.8$ confined between thermally conducting plates. We show through the simulation…
The corner roll (CR) in the Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard (RB) convection accounts for the behaviors of heat transport and convection flow at the corner. Streamlines of the three-dimensional direct numerical simulations for $10^8<Ra<5\times10^9$ show…
The cascade-shell model of turbulence with six real variables originated by Gledzer is studied numerically using Mathematica 5.1. Periodic, doubly-periodic and chaotic solutions and the routes to chaos via both frequency-locking and…
Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection is studied and quantitative comparisons are made, where possible, between theory and experiment by performing numerical simulations of the Boussinesq equations for a variety of experimentally realistic…
