Horizontal Cellular Oscillations Caused by Time-Periodic Resonant Thermal Forcing in Weakly Nonlinear Darcy-Bénard Convection

open access: yesFluids, 2017
The onset of Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a horizontally unbounded saturated porous medium is considered. Particular attention is given to the stability of weakly nonlinear convection between two plane horizontal surfaces heated from below.

Study of heat and mass transport in Couple-Stress liquid under G-jitter effect

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
In the present paper, we deal with the effect of G-jitter (time periodic gravity modulation) on the stability of double diffusive convection in couple stress liquid by method of non-linear analysis. The infinitesimal disturbances are expanded in terms of

Incompressible flows and the Boussinesq approximation: 50 years of CFD

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mécanique, 2022
We offer a synthetic exposition on the state of the art for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) relevant to the Navier–Stokes equations with the Boussinesq approximation, smoothly blending a history of the field with an accessible exposition of the ...

Sparse nonlinear models of chaotic electroconvection

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Convection is a fundamental fluid transport phenomenon, where the large-scale motion of a fluid is driven, for example, by a thermal gradient or an electric potential. Modelling convection has given rise to the development of chaos theory and the reduced-

Oscillatory instability of Rayleigh-Marangoni-Bénard convection in two-layer liquid systems

open access: yes, 2005
The oscillatory behaviour of the Rayleigh-Marangoni-Bénard convective instability (R-M-B instability) regarding two combinations of two-layer fluid systems has been investigated theoretically and numerically.

Analysis of Turbulent Free Convection in a Rectangular Rayleigh-Benard Cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The present study compares results of direct numerical simulations of thermal convection within a rectangular geometry with Rayleigh-Benard convection in thin fluid layers and cylindrical geometries.

Rayleigh-Bénard convection at high Rayleigh number and infinite Prandtl number: asymptotics and numerics

open access: yes, 2013
The problem of fast viscous steady Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a rectangular enclosure is revisited using asymptotic and numerical methods. There are two generic cases: in the first, there is zero shear stress at all boundaries; in the second, there ...

A Model Intercomparison Study of Mixed‐Phase Clouds in a Laboratory Chamber

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Supercooled liquid water often persists in mixed‐phase clouds for hours to days, even though a simple, well‐mixed Wegener‐Bergeron‐Findeisen model predicts rapid depletion of liquid water in the presence of ice. The persistence is well documented, but the relative importance of the maintaining mechanisms remains uncertain.

High‐Resolution LiDAR Observations for Coupled Effects of Dry‐Air Entrainment and Haze‐Cloud Interactions on Cloud Vertical Structure

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract This study demonstrates the high‐resolution profiling of cloud microphysics in a laboratory chamber using Time‐Correlated Single Photon Counting (TCSPC) LiDAR. We present a novel retrieval method to derive vertical extinction (σ) $(\sigma )$ profiles, constrained by in situ measurements, to diagnose responses to dry‐air entrainment.

Fluid Convection, Constraint and Causation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Complexity–nonlinear dynamics for my purposes in this essay–is rich with metaphysical and epistemological implications but is only recently receiving sustained philosophical analysis.
