The convective instability in a plane liquid layer with time-dependent temperature profile is investigated by means of a general method suitable for linear stability analysis of an unsteady basic flow. The method is based on a non-normal…
Pattern formation in Rayleigh-Benard convection in a large-aspect-ratio cylinder with a radial ramp in the plate separation is studied analytically and numerically by performing numerical simulations of the Boussinesq equations. A…
The research is devoted to the stability of convective flow in a nonuniformly rotating layer of an electrically conducting fluid in a spiral magnetic field. The stationary and oscillatory modes of magnetic convection are considered…
We report the existence of two new limiting turbulent regimes in horizontal convection (HC) using direct numerical simulations at intermediate to low Prandtl numbers. The flow driven by a horizontal gradient along a horizontal surface,…
We investigate the processes that lead to the generation of mean flows in two-dimensional anelastic convection. The simple model consists of a plane layer that is rotating about an axis inclined to gravity. The results are two-fold: firstly…
Theoretical results on the dynamics of dislocations in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection are reported both for Swift-Hohenberg models and the Boussinesq equations. For intermediate Prandtl numbers the motion of dislocations is found to be driven…
We analyze weakly nonlinear stability of a flow of viscous conducting liquid driven by pressure gradient in the channel between two parallel walls subject to a transverse magnetic field. Using a non-standard numerical approach, we compute…
A turbulent-laminar banded pattern in plane Couette flow is studied numerically. This pattern is statistically steady, is oriented obliquely to the streamwise direction, and has a very large wavelength relative to the gap. The mean flow,…
We study the stability and dynamics of non-Boussinesq convection in pure gases (CO$_2$ and SF$_6$) with Prandtl numbers near $Pr\simeq 1$ and in a H$_2$-Xe mixture with $Pr=0.17$. Focusing on the strongly nonlinear regime we employ Galerkin…
Doubly diffusive convection is considered in a vertical slot where horizontal temperature and solutal variations provide competing effects to the fluid density while allowing the existence of a conduction state. In this configuration, the…
Rolls in finite Prandtl number rotating convection with free-slip top and bottom boundary conditions are shown to be unstable with respect to small angle perturbations for any value of the rotation rate. This instability is driven by the…
New condition Re>Re_th_min=124 of linear (exponential) instability of the Hagen-Poisseuille (HP) with respect to extremely small by magnitude axially-symmetric disturbances of the tangential component of the velocity field is obtained. For…
Motivated by the observation of localized traveling-wave states (`pulses') in convection in binary liquid mixtures, the interaction of fronts is investigated in a real Ginzburg-Landau equation which is coupled to a mean field. In that…
The transition to intermittent mean--field dynamos is studied using numerical simulations of isotropic magnetohydrodynamic turbulence driven by a helical flow. The low-Prandtl number regime is investigated by keeping the kinematic viscosity…
Using coupled Ginzburg-Landau equations, the dynamics of hexagonal patterns with broken chiral symmetry are investigated, as they appear in rotating non-Boussinesq or surface-tension-driven convection. We find that close to the secondary…
We investigate the effect of inertial particles on Rayleigh-B\'enard convection using weakly nonlinear stability analysis. In the presence of nonlinear effects, we study the limiting value of growth of instabilities by deriving a cubic…
We analyse numerically the linear stability of a liquid metal flow in a rectangular duct with perfectly electrically conducting walls subject to a uniform transverse magnetic field. A non-standard three dimensional vector stream…
Horizontally extended turbulent convection, termed mesoscale convection in natural systems, remains a challenge to investigate in both experiments and simulations. This is particularly so for very low molecular Prandtl numbers as in stellar…
Well-resolved numerical simulations are used to study Rayleigh-B\'enard-Poiseuille flow over an evolving phase boundary for moderate values of P\'eclet ($Pe \in \left[0, 50\right]$) and Rayleigh ($Ra \in \left[2.15 \times 10^3,…
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…
