On the thermal effect of porous material in porous media Rayleigh-Bénard convection
Jun Zhong, Shuang Liu, Chao Sun
We perform a two-dimensional numerical study on the thermal effect of porous media on global heat transport and flow structure in Rayleigh-Bénard (RB) convection, focusing on the r…
From Sheared Annular Centrifugal Rayleigh-Bénard Convection to Radially Heated Taylor-Couette Flow: Exploring the Impact of Buoyancy and Shear on Heat Transfer and Flow Structure
Jun Zhong, Dongpu Wang, Chao Sun
We investigate the coupling effect of buoyancy and shear based on an annular centrifugal Rayleigh-Bénard convection (ACRBC) system in which two cylinders rotate with an angular vel…
Transition criteria and phase space structures in a three degree of freedom system with dissipation
Jun Zhong, Shane D. Ross
Escape from a potential well through an index-1 saddle can be widely found in some important physical systems. Knowing the criteria and phase space geometry that govern escape even…
Global invariant manifolds delineating transition and escape dynamics in dissipative systems
Jun Zhong, Shane D. Ross
Invariant manifolds play an important role in organizing global dynamical behaviors. For example, it is found that in multi-well conservative systems where the potential energy wel…
Geometry of escape and transition dynamics in the presence of dissipative and gyroscopic forces in two degree of freedom systems
Jun Zhong, Shane D. Ross
Escape from a potential well can occur in different physical systems, such as capsize of ships, resonance transitions in celestial mechanics, and dynamic snap-through of arches and…
A Tube Dynamics Perspective Governing Stability Transitions: An Example Based on Snap-through Buckling
Jun Zhong, Lawrence N. Virgin, Shane D. Ross
The equilibrium configuration of an engineering structure, able to withstand a certain loading condition, is usually associated with a local minimum of the underlying potential ene…
