High Order Weighted Essentially Nonoscillatory Schemes for Convection Dominated Problems

SIAM Review, 2009
High order accurate weighted essentially nonoscillatory (WENO) schemes are relatively new but have gained rapid popularity in numerical solutions of hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) and other convection dominated problems.

Dynamics of convection

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1987
Thermal convection in a fluid layer is an example of a dynamical system governed by partial differential equations. As the relevant control parameter (the Rayleigh number) is increased, successive bifurcations may lead to chaos and the nature of the transition depends on the spatial structure of the flow.

Natural convection in enclosures

, 1988
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the complex nature of the natural convection phenomena in enclosures. It discusses the two basic configurations of natural convection— that is, a rectangular cavity and a horizontal circular cylinder.

Physics of Mantle Convection [PDF]

, 2007
This chapter presents the fundamental physics necessary to understand the complex fluid dynamics of mantle convection. The first section derives the equations of conservation for mass, momentum and energy, and the boundary and interface conditions for the various physical quantities.
