Phototactic bioconvection under oblique collimated irradiation in a forward scattering suspension
A. Rathi, M. K. Panda, S. K. Rajput
Phototaxis, the process by which living organisms navigate toward optimal light conditions, is essential for motile photosynthetic microorganisms. Positive(negative) phototaxis den…
Thermal-phototactic bioconvection in a forward scattering algal suspension
S. K. Rajput, M. K. Panda, A. Rathi
Bioconvection induced by phototaxis and thermal gradients in an anisotropic (forward) scattering algal suspension is investigated in this article. The suspension is illuminated by…
Thermal phototactic bioconvection in an isotropic porous medium heated from above
