Dynamos driven by rotating convection in the plane layer geometry are investigated numerically for a range of Ekman number ($E$), magnetic Prandtl number ($Pm$) and Rayleigh number ($Ra$). The primary purpose of the investigation is to…
This study examines the onset of rotating magnetoconvection under an axially imposed magnetic field in the presence of partial thermal stable stratification. Three stratification models-fully unstable, weakly stable, and strongly stable-are…
We present the results of our investigation on nonlinear overstable rotating magnetoconvection (RMC) in presence of vertical external magnetic field. We focus on the dynamics appearing near the onset of convection by varying the system…
We consider the onset of Boussinesq convection in a horizontal layer of electrically conducting incompressible fluid with rigid electrically insulating horizontal boundaries. The fluid is heated from below and rotates about a vertical axis;…
A model for three-dimensional Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection in low-Prandtl-number fluids near onset with rigid horizontal boundaries in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field is constructed and analyzed in detail. The kinetic…
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…
Floquet analysis of modulated magnetoconvection in Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard\ geometry is performed. The temperature of the lower plate is varied sinusoidally in time about a finite mean. As the Rayleigh number $\mathrm{Ra}$ is made to cross a…
We investigate the linear onset of thermal convection in rotating spherical shells with a focus on the influence of mechanical boundary conditions and thermal driving modes. Using a spectral method, we determine critical Rayleigh numbers,…
The onset of convection in a rapidly rotating layer in which a thermal wind is present is studied. Diffusive effects are included. The main motivation is from convection in planetary interiors, where thermal winds are expected due to…
This paper experimentally investigates the convection in a fast rotating Tangent Cylinder (TC), for Ekman numbers down to $E=3.36\times10^{-6}$, in a configuration relevant to the liquid core of the Earth. In the apparatus, the TC results…
We present the results of direct numerical simulations of Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in the presence of a uniform vertical magnetic field near instability onset. We have done simulations in boxes with square as well as rectangular…
We study nonlinear convection in a rapidly rotating sphere with internal heating for values of the Prandtl number relevant for liquid metals ($Pr\in[10^{-2},10^{-1}]$). We use a numerical model based on the quasi-geostrophic approximation,…
We study dynamo action using numerical simulations of planar Boussinesq convection at rapid rotation (low Ekman numbers, Ek), focusing on subcritical dynamo action in which the dynamo is sustained for Rayleigh numbers, Ra, below the…
A numerical study of convection with stress-free boundary conditions in the presence of an imposed magnetic field that is tilted with respect to the direction of gravity is carried out in the limit of small magnetic Reynolds number. The…
We investigate the onset of convective instability and subsequent transitions near it in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC) of electrically conducting low Prandtl-number (Pr) fluids in the simultaneous presence of rotation about the…
The onset of convection in the form of magneto-inertial waves in a rotating fluid sphere permeated by a constant axial electric current is studied through a perturbation analysis. Explicit expressions for the dependence of the Rayleigh…
Quasistatic magnetoconvection of a low Prandtl number fluid ($\textrm{Pr}=0.025)$ with a vertical magnetic field is considered in a unit aspect ratio box with no-slip boundaries. At high relative magnetic field strengths, given by the…
Quasi-static Rayleigh-B\'enard convection with an imposed horizontal magnetic field is investigated numerically for Chandrasekhar numbers up to $Q=10^6$ with stress free boundary conditions. Both $Q$ and the Rayleigh number ($Ra$) are…
Rayleigh-B\'enard convection in rotating spherical shells can be considered as a simplified analogue of many astrophysical and geophysical fluid flows. Here, we use three-dimensional direct numerical simulations to study this physical…
The secular variation of the geomagnetic field suggests that there are anticyclonic polar vortices in the Earth's core. Under the influence of a magnetic field, the polar azimuthal flow is thought to be produced by one or more coherent…
