We first develop a new mathematical model for two-fluid interface motion, subjected to the Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability in two-dimensional fluid flow, which in its simplest form, is given by $ h_{tt}(\alpha,t) = A g\, \Lambda h -…
In this article we consider the inhomogeneous incompressible Euler equations describing two fluids with different constant densities under the influence of gravity as a differential inclusion. By considering the relaxation of the…
We develop a weakly nonlinear, multi-mode theory for the Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) on a time-varying spherical interface, fully incorporating mode couplings and the Bell-Plesset (BP) effects arising from interface convergence. Our…
These fluid dynamics video sequences show two Rayleigh-Taylor instability experiments. The first video sequence shows an experiment where two layers of uniform density are arranged such that the density of the upper layer is greater than…
The onset of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability is studied a compressible Brownian Yukawa fluid mixture on the ``molecular'' length and time scales of the individual particles. As a model, a two-dimensional phase-separated symmetric binary…
The early-time interface instabilities in high intensity (high Weber number and high Reynolds number) aero-breakup of a liquid drop are investigated by numerical simulations. A combined analysis based on simulation results and…
This article is concerned with the dynamic behaviour of two immiscible and incompressible fluids in a cylindrical domain, which are separated by a sharp interface. In case that the heavy fluid is situated on top of the light fluid, one…
Growth of the single-fluid single-mode Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) is revisited in 2D and 3D using fully compressible high-resolution simulations. We conduct a systematic analysis of the effects of perturbation Reynolds number…
We have developed a theoretical analysis to systematically study the late-time evolution of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in a finite-sized spatial domain. The nonlinear dynamics of fluids with similar and contrasting densities are…
The Rayleigh-Taylor instability develops when fluids are accelerated counter to their density gradients; intense interfacial fluid mixing ensues with time. The Rayleigh-Taylor mixing controls a broad range of processes in fluids, plasmas,…
We analyze an analog of the hydrodynamic Rayleigh-Taylor instability for the liquid-solid phase interface under non-uniform growth of the solid phase. The development of the instability starts on conditions of an accelerated interface…
The Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) arises at the interface between two fluids of different densities, notably when a heavier fluid lies above a lighter one in an effective gravitational field. In astrophysical systems with high…
We study a model for the evolution of an axially symmetric bubble of inviscid fluid in a homogeneous porous medium otherwise saturated with a viscous fluid. The model is a moving boundary problem that is a higher-dimensional analogue of…
We study the nonlinear evolution of the magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability using three-dimensional MHD simulations. We consider the idealized case of two inviscid, perfectly conducting fluids of constant density separated by a contact…
This letter investigates the effect of shear on Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI). Even simple uniform shear strongly influences the instability; longer waves are completely stabilized when density stratification is large (higher Atwood…
The effect of rotation upon the classical two-layer Rayleigh-Taylor instability is considered theoretically and compared with previous experimental results. In particular we consider a two-layer system with an axis of rotation that is…
Two-dimensional single-mode Rayleigh-Taylor Instability (RTI) is simulated using an accurate and robust front-tracking/ghost-fluid method (FT/GFM) with high-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) scheme. We compare our numerical…
When a viscous fluid partially fills a Hele--Shaw channel, and is pushed by a pressure difference, the fluid interface is unstable due to the Saffman--Taylor instability. We consider the evolution of a fluid region of finite extent, bounded…
We consider the long-standing problem of Rayleigh-Taylor instability with variable acceleration, and focus on the early-time dynamics of an interface separating incompressible ideal fluids of different densities subject to an acceleration…
Nonlinear evolutions of two-dimensional single-mode compressible Rayleigh--Taylor instability (RTI) with isothermal stratification are investigated in cylindrical geometry via direct numerical simulation for different Atwood numbers…
