Weakly nonlinear subcritical instability of visco-elastic Poiseuille flow
Bernard Meulenbroek, Cornelis Storm, Alexander N. Morozov +1
It is well known that the Poiseuille flow of a visco-elastic polymer fluid between plates or through a tube is linearly stable in the zero Reynolds number limit, although the stabi…

Sources, sinks and holes in a one-dimensional traveling wave convection experiment
Luc Pastur, Mark-Tiele Westra, Daniel Snouck +4
We study dynamical behavior of local structures, such as sources and holes, in traveling wave patterns in a very long (2 m) heated wire convection experiment. The {\em sources} und…
